Description from Matisse:

Quinacridone Burnt Orange, known as PR206 in the art world, boasts a striking earthy maroon hue in its densest form. As you dilute it, it reveals a vivid red undertone. Renowned for its capacity to produce effective shadows, particularly when blended with blues or yellows, it's a favourite for crafting deeper flesh tones in portraits. When mixed with phthalo blue, it creates a diverse palette of browns, turquoise and greens. Artists favour this pigment for its versatility, finding it particularly apt for landscapes and seascapes, where it harmonises seamlessly with natural colours.
