Let colours speak

In 2008, the Swiss illustrator and artist Yves Nussbaum (Noyau) captured the Lascaux working day on site in his expressive pictures painted with gouache colours. These have not lost their relevance to this day, as the quality of our manufacturing processes has not changed since then. These expressive illustrations accompany this series on Lascaux, in which we explain our values, our philosophy, and our work.



COLOURS OF THE GREAT HEART - Resonating with Sirius


In words and images the new book by Barbara Diethelm traces the decades of research and development resulting in her holistic colour systems, providing context to their larger meaning and purpose for the raising of consciousness at this time.


"Aesthetic concept and spiritual tool in one - a quantum leap into the higher dimensions of colour.”
Klaus Stromer, author of Die Natur der Farben and Color Systems in Art and Science.

For humanity – in harmony with the environment

Since its foundation Lascaux has promoted water-soluble systems.

The high quality water Switzerland is renowned for and which is additionally energised by Lascaux is an important precondition for the standard of our products. Lascaux colours are produced without additive solvents, and they are qualified as poison-free. Only the sturdiest raw materials and finest pigments are used. They are precisely adjusted for every individual composition. Practically every Lascaux product is refined on the triple roll mill after the blending procedure.
