History and Origin

Ultramarine Blue, derived from the finest Afghan lapis lazuli stones, has been prized by artists for centuries. Its name, meaning "beyond the sea," reflects its origins as a rare and valuable pigment transported to Europe through Venetian trade routes. It was famously used in Renaissance masterpieces to depict heavenly skies, royal robes, and divine figures. Artists such as Titian, Michelangelo, and Vermeer relied on ultramarine for its unparalleled vibrancy, often reserving it for the most important elements of their works due to its high cost.
