Dyeing and colour workshop, Les Gobelins, Le Mobilier
Coloured pigments used to mix dyes on the windowsill of the Atelier de Teinture or Dyeing Workshops, at the Gobelins Manufactory, a historic tapestry workshop, at Le Mobilier National, which commissions and conserves state furniture, in the 13th arrondissement of Paris, France. The dyeing workshop was founded by Colbert in 1665, when a limited palette of natural dyes were used. In 1838 Eugene Chevreul created his chromatic circle, which is now digitised and used for mixing synthetic dyes. Picture by Manuel Cohen
