This Is My Glasgow on Nostr: The name verdigris is thought to originate from the French for green of Greece. ...
The name verdigris is thought to originate from the French for green of Greece. Despite being poisonous, verdigris was widely used in architecture and art as it was the most vibrant green pigment available until new man-made ones were created in the 1800s. You will see it on many domes across Glasgow.
