Roughly 200 years ago, artists were painting with the pulverized remains of Egyptian mummies. This color was available in art shops until the mid-20th-century when it disappeared due to laws and scarcity of mummies to make paint from. The unique opportunity has presented itself for this color to be adequately documented. I reproduce this historical color using Egyptian mummy fragments from the revered Billy Jamieson collection. The fragments that I have obtained are said to have once been housed with Ramses I in the Niagara Falls History Museum, which Jamieson purchased in 1999.
