Richard,

The Red Ocher I showed you became practically the same color as Venetian Red when I mixed it with oil.
Venetian Red, Light Red, Red ocher or English Red, as my color is labeled, has the same origin by being Earth color.
Different brands come up with different colors, even it is the same name.

Thomas Girtin, English watercolorist, used only 5 colors and his Red was Light Red.
