Gouache paint has roots that date back to ancient times, but it was primarily developed and popularized in the 18th century. It became widely used among artists in Europe during this period, especially in the context of watercolor painting. The modern formulation of gouache that we know today evolved further in the 19th century.

Type of paint consisting of a pigment suspended in water?
Gouache (from the Italian guazzo, "water paint, splash") or bodycolor (the term preferred by art historians) is a type of paint consisting of pigment suspended in water. Gouache differs from watercolor in that the particles are larger, the ratio of pigment to water is much higher, and an additional, inert, white pigment such as chalk is also present. This makes gouache heavier and more opaque, with greater reflective qualities.
