New Masters® Classic Acrylics from Old Holland In 1998, Old Holland chemists began the first research work on a range of classic acrylic paints and mediums.
It was a long-held dream of the late owner of Old Holland, Professor Theo de Beer, to create an acrylic paint worthy of carrying the brand name "Old Holland" (or "Scheveningen" paints as they are still called in Europe due to the town in which they were originally produced) and he personally named the project "New Masters" after his feeling that it should be like this, just as Old Holland oils were used in the works of many old masters. From this it can be concluded that the Old Holland acrylic paints would be used today by the new masters of art.
"The main criteria were set as follows.
1. The range should complement the existing oil and watercolour ranges and be a unique blend of the best traditional colours reflecting the heritage of Old Holland dating back to 1664, but also with the finest pigments resulting from new technologies that underline a constant search for new and exciting colours to broaden the artist's palette.
2. All pigments used must be lightfast to ASTM 1 and 2 or BWS 7+ standards.
3. In keeping with the Old Holland tradition, each colour must be formulated with the greatest possible pigmentation in the binder system.
4. Old Holland Classic Acrylics must be formulated free of extenders or fillers of any kind.
5. 100% pure acrylic resin must be the backbone of the binder system to achieve excellent adhesion, colour
