The yellow pigments were ochre, giallorino, orpi- jnent, risalgallo, zaffera,no, apd arzic?,. GiaUprijip THE MEDIAEVAL ILLUMINATOR 121 is supposed to have been a native mineral yeUow pig- ment. It is described by Cennino as a volcanic product. Some, however, think this to be similar to the pigment that used to be known as Naples yellow, which was a compound of the oxides of lead and anti- mony. Risalgallo realgar, or red orpiment, was prepared by gently heating orpiment. Zafferano was saffron, ...while arzica was a lake prepared from weld, which is wild mignonette. The greens that he refers to are verde terra, verde azzurro, and verderame. Verde terra is the natural earth known also as terra verte. In all probability verde azzurro was a native copper carbonate, similar to green bice. Verderame was verdigris. The blues used were azzurro della magna, azzurro oltre' marino, and indaco baccadeo. Azzurro della magna was a copper-blue similar to the azurite of the classical period. Azzurro oltre marino was the genuine ultramarine.
