The aim at that time to produce one of the world's finest oil colours is maintained until today. Since 1862, the names Dr. Fr. Schoenfeld and LUKAS have been synonymous with artist colours of the highest quality. Even Vincent van Gogh has been proven to work with Lukas products.

The use of the most precious artist's pigments, which are used exclusively pure and uncut, guarantee exceptional colour intensity and the highest light fastness. The buttrige consistency in combination with the best oils and a trace of the finest bleached beeswax makes the colour film less brittle and reduces the formation of cracks. To ensure minimum yellowing, sunflower oil is preferred to darker linseed oil in bright colours. The drying time of all colours is 2 to 4 days with a thin brush stroke thickness.
