The Hahnemühle authentic hand-made paper called Ingres (after the French artist Auguste Dominique Ingres, 1780-1867) is produced the old-fashioned way on a cylinder mould machine. The pastel artist pad is made up of finely ribbed, acid-free paper in 9 different non-fade colours and is designed for use with dry colouring and drawing techniques using pencil, chalk, pastel, ruddle and watercolour.
