Lefranc Bourgeois
Lefranc Bourgeois is the oldest artists' paint manufacturer in France, founded in 1720. Its professional-grade oil colours have been used by French painters for three centuries, including Cézanne, who purchased supplies from the company throughout his career.

Community note
“Rivera used various oil paints and fresco materials for his monumental murals. European-manufactured paints including Lefranc were available to Mexican artists through Paris-supplied art shops. His materials are documented in conservation studies of his murals.”
