How Did It Originate?

Sinoper was discovered after a piece of iron dioxide (Fe 2

0 3) was dehydrated. It was mainly used in Classical Antiquity and Middle Ages for use in painting. During the Renaissance it was used on the first layer of plaster for a fresco.

Facts:

The word is used both for pigment and for a preparatory drawing

meaning of Sinoper is of a “red Earth colour.”

Who Used Sinoper?

Not many artists used Sinoper in their paintings, but I managed to find some

from the underlayings of some frescos. The first by the Master of the Grigg Crucifixion on the left (Madonna and Child), and just a sinopie sketch by Buonamico Buffalmacco on the right.
