[NR] iso-colors in the book of kells

[Rene Shepard]

Hello,From my research I've found yellow/gold, orange, navy blue, teal blue, sky blue, purple, green, black, gold leaf, pink. There is also a rust color that may have been a darker orange, or brown that has faded over time. The pinks may also have been reds that have faded over time. Only the gold leaf will have remained totally unchanged, however the colors have remained incredibly well preserved.Cheers.

I am looking for the colors that were used in the Book of Kells.  Does any one have a list of the orginal colors used?  If I remember corectly there were 13 different colors.  I have searched but I am unable to afind a web site that provides this information.  If there is a web site could you please forward me the link ?

Thank you for your time and help.
