It produces a rich, transparent violet with a clear red-leaning undertone and a deeply saturated masstone. Compared to traditional violets and mixed purples, this pigment is cleaner and higher in chroma while still capable of subtle, atmospheric glazes rather than appearing overly harsh or synthetic.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn use, Quinacridone Violet gives a luminous, transparent violet ideal for florals, twilight skies, textiles, shadows, and expressive passages in both landscape and abstract work. It has strong tinting strength with a transparent to semi-transparent character, making it excellent for glazing, layered washes, and optical mixing. It mixes beautifully with blues for intense violets and inky near-blacks, with magentas and reds for wine tones and deep pinks, and with earth colors to create sophisticated plum, aubergine, and smoky neutral shadows that stay clear rather than muddy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis quinacridone pigment is highly chromatic, lightfast, and compatible with a wide range of binders and mediums. In artist\u003cspan\u003e'\u003c\/span\u003es colors it serves as a modern alternative to less permanent violets and rose-violets, functioning both as a statement purple and as a versatile mixer for cool shadows, florals, and moody, low-key palettes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHistory\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe quinacridone family of pigments emerged in the mid-20th century from advances in organic chemistry aimed at creating colorants with exceptional chroma, transparency, and permanence. These pigments were first adopted in automotive and industrial coatings, where their resistance to light, weather, and chemicals quickly set them apart from earlier organic reds and violets.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eQuinacridone Violet (PV19) occupies a central position within the quinacridone spectrum, bridging the gap between magenta and deep violet. Its combination of high chroma, transparency, and very good lightfastness made it especially attractive to paintmakers and artists seeking reliable replacements for fugitive violets and rose pigments. Over time it has become a staple in many professional watercolor, oil, and acrylic ranges, often appearing under names such as Quinacridone Violet, Permanent Magenta, or Quinacridone Rose, and is valued for its versatility as both a primary mixing color and a distinctive violet in its own right.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePigment Information\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePigment Type: Synthetic (Organic) quinacridone pigment\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSuitable Mediums: Watercolor, Oil, Tempera, Acrylic, Encaustic, Cold Wax, Casein, Milk, Swedish Flour\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLightfastness: Excellent\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOpacity: Transparent\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOther Names: Quinacridone Violet, Permanent Magenta (PV19), Quinacridone Rose \/ Red Violet\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eColor Index Code: PV19\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Morrow Archival","offers":[{"title":"2 Grams","offer_id":47875259662558,"sku":"PS-674-0000-0002g","price":6.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10 Grams","offer_id":47875259695326,"sku":"PS-674-0000-0010g","price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"20 Grams","offer_id":47875259728094,"sku":"PS-674-0000-0020g","price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"50 Grams","offer_id":47875259760862,"sku":"PS-674-0000-0050g","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 Grams","offer_id":47875259793630,"sku":"PS-674-0000-0100g","price":85.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"500 Grams","offer_id":47875259826398,"sku":"PS-674-0000-0500g","price":250.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0739\/2821\/2702\/files\/fb663fc0-bcc4-4d42-80b1-986de5f3e243-copy.jpg?v=1769982692","url":"https:\/\/morrowarchival.com\/products\/quinacridone-violet-pigment-425137729","provider":"Morrow Archival","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
