umbers

Shades are formed by the addition of the siennas, umbers, or black.

The umbers are in the same class with the siennas and ochres.

It contains, however, a lower percentage of the latter than in the case of umbers.

The older types of colouring matter—such as cadmium yellow, ochres, vermilion, umbers—have been superseded.

Some painters have a great liking for siennas and umbers as body colors for sleigh work.
