* light fastness seems to be affected by sulfides, hydrothermal silica, preparation and impurities. (Mineral Reference);
According to the Pigment Compendium, 2008 Cinnabar based pigments only darken when they contain traces of chlorine or exposed to halogens. Also "blackening and fading in vermilion are always due to adulteration ‘by mixture with lake, carmine or by red or orange lead’."

‘There are obtainable from cobalt by different processes rose and red colours of more or less beauty and intensity, but all vastly inferior to those of madder [q.v.], in whose absence alone they could gain a place on the palette. They are generally characterised by a fatal chalkiness, and poorness of hue. More expensive than the madder colours, and without their purity, depth, or transparency cobalt reds have often been offered as pigments, and as often declined.’ Salter (1869) (Ref Pigment Compendium, 2008, p.122); |

"The English form of the Latin word porphyrites, used by the Romans to designate a certain rock having a dark-crimson ground through which are scattered small crystals of feldspar. In Pliny's time this rock, quarried in Egypt, was used extensively for architectural and ornamental purposes, and especially for the base or lower part of busts To the Italians it became known as porfido rosso anlico. Other rocks having a similar structure, commonly called porphyritic, were used in Italy, and designated, in accordance with the predominating color, as porfido nero, porfido verde, etc. (Reference from The Century Dictionary and Cyclopedia; Whitney, Smith, 191. pg.4628); |

Alizarin or 1,2-dihydroxyanthraquinone is an synthetic organic compound with formula C14H8O4 that is historically important as a prominent dye, originally derived from the roots of plants of the madder genus;

(Ref at Boston Fine Arts CAMEO);
Lake of Dihydroxy-anthraqutone or Anthraquinone Lake (Alizarin Crimson) is a synthetic form of NR9 (without Purpurin) precipitated with an inert binder, usually a metallic salt.; (lake pigments wikipedia Ref);
Color depends on metal the lake is fixed on: Aluminum - Red;

?**Utrecht's Artist Watercolor "Permanent Alizarin Crimson" is PR83 according to the web site, but is PR177 according to the MSDS sheet. I believe it's probably PR177 because that would be more consistent with the name of "Permanent Alizarin Crimson", with an "excellent" lightfastness rating, and in their oil paints PR177 is under the same color name of "Permanent Alizarin Crimson". Also they they have normal "Alizarin Crimson" PR83 in acrylics, oil colors and watercolor.

There are many other names for ochres and red iron oxides, usually based on color hue (maroon, violet), production location (Turkey, Oxford), quarry, mining site or manufacturing method (burnt, fired, roasted) and to further complicate things they appear in amost all languages.
They can be followed or prefixed by other properties such as raw, bright, deep, dark, medium, fine or transparent etc.
There are also many different traditional spellings of the word Ochre, Ocher, Ocre, Oker, Oaker, etc. or Earth (Terra, Terre) and variances on the words oxide (Oxyde, oxid, etc.), Iron (di ferro, de fer, mars, Ferric, ferrous, etc.), red (rouge, rot, rosso, rojo, colorado, etc.) and brown (bruin, brun, marron, braun, moreno, etc.).
The same names are now seemingly even used interchangeably for synthetic or natural forms, including some crossover with the names of yellow hydrated iron oxides (PY42, PY43) and brown iron oxides and umbers (PBr6, PBr7).
The red iron oxide pigments have an ancient history and pigments often still use the traditional names not necessarily in the native tongue of the artists using them. Add to all that, the multitude of languages that have intermixed and the iron oxide pigment names have become an almost impossible list of varied phrases. |

However the Grumbacher web site also states they are "coprecipated with barium sulfate", that would make them "Cadmium-Barium" versions of those cadmium colors and should have a :1 after the color index name. (ie. PO20 should be PO20:1). Older Grumbacher literature do indicate these are Cadmium-Barium colors. |

Good substitute for Alizarin Crimson but not the exact shade or chroma
?**Utrecht's Artist Watercolor "Permanent Alizarin Crimson" is PR83 according to the web site, but is PR177 according to the MSDS sheet. I believe it's probably PR177 because that would be more consistent with the name of "Permanent Alizarin Crimson", with an "excellent" lightfastness rating, and in their oil paints PR177 is under the same color name of "Permanent Alizarin Crimson". Also they they have normal "Alizarin Crimson" PR83 in acrylics, oil colors and watercolor. |
