1@Pigment. Powdered colours used in oriental painting. Insoluble in water and most other liquid media. Usually mixed with animal glue *nikawa äP as a binder *baizai ”}Ü to make a paint. Ganryou are opaque, durable and relatively resistant to fading. The term ganryou is used in contrast to senryou õ—¿, which refers to translucent soluble dyes. Senryou and ganryou are collectively known as *shikiryou F—¿. Ganryou are divided into organic pigments *yuuki ganryou —L‹@Šç—¿ and inorganic pigments *muki ganryou –³‹@Šç—¿, both of which can be synthetically produced or made from naturally occurring materials. Many pigments used in Japan are so-called *iwa-enogu ŠâŠG‹ï made from minerals koubutsu z•¨, and doro-enogu “DŠG‹ï made from earth materials, doshitsu zairyou “yŽ¿Þ—¿. The most important ganryou include the white pigments *hakudo ”’“y and *gofun ŒÓ•², red *shu Žé, orange *tan ’O, yellow ochre *oudo ‰©“y, green *rokushou —ÎÂ, brown *taisha ‘ãæÞ, and blue *gunjou ŒQÂ. Pigments are not usually mixed, but variations in tone can be achieved by grinding down the powder; finer grains give a lighter shade. Sometimes a fixative is used to bind an insoluble substance such as powdered metal to a soluble dye, producing a lake pigment, reiki ganryou ƒŒ[ƒLŠç—¿ such as red madder lake, mada reiki ƒ}ƒ_ ƒŒ[ƒL.

2@As *enogu ŠG‹ï. Ganryou is sometimes used to refer to any type of colouring matter.
