The black is a steam-chrome black, whilst theremainder of the colours, green, orange, and blue, are pigments mixed withalbumen and steamed after printing.

The first pattern on p. 645 shows similar colours upon a pale green ground.The light and dark red, the deep green, the orange, the black, and the blue arefirst of all produced by the methods recently described, printed, steamed, andwashed off.
