Roberson : Beeswax Picture Varnishes

Roberson Beeswax Picture Varnish Is Made Utilising An Ancient Recipe. The Origins Of This Medium Go Back To The Ancient Greeks, Where Beeswax Was Mixed With Pigments And Applied To Statues (traditionally Painted In Bright Colours) As Well As Decorating Ships. The Medium Preserves Colours With A Durable Protective Barrier Against Aggressive Atmospheric Contaminants Over A Long Period Of Time. The Finished Surface Can Be Polished Up To Increase The Sheen If Desired. This Traditional Approach Offers A Soft, Natural-looking Finish That Enhances The Character Of The Artwork Without The High Gloss Of Modern Synthetic Varnishes.
