'Yellow ochre' =3D natural deposits of hydrated iron oxide, used since anti=
quity along with red ochre, for instance in Lascaux cave paintings and earl=
ier (Wikipedia; unclear if refined at all, or suspended in some vehicle bef=
ore application).  Artist=92s paints now said often made from synthetic iro=
n oxide, not the natural stuff (presumably now in a suspension in oil)?
