FAQs

Grisaille is a painting technique executed entirely in shades of grey or neutral greyish-brown, often used in the 18th century for preliminary studies or finished monochrome works.

Artists of this era typically used handmade laid paper, natural pigment watercolours, and iron gall or carbon inks applied with animal hair brushes and quill pens.

Authentication involves examining paper watermarks, the ageing characteristics of the pigments, ink oxidisation, and verifying the artists signature or handwriting against known exemplars.

Monochrome watercolours pair well with neutral walls and slim antique wooden frames, adding historic depth and a quiet focal point to contemporary living spaces.

Antique watercolours should be framed behind UV-protective conservation glass and kept away from direct sunlight and high humidity to prevent fading and paper degradation.
