COBALT The first cobalt blue was discovered in 1802 by a chemist who heated cobalt salts mixed with alumina. His aim was to produce a blue comparable to the natural ultramarine, an extremely expensive color obtained from lapis lazuli. Van Gogh was a fervent admirer of the cobalt blue, as can be seen in his painting from 1888, Starry Night. He expressed this interest in a letter a few years before painting this work: "Cobalt is a divine color, there is nothing so beautiful to create space around objects." - Louise
