Veronese green appears in France to have originally referred to emerald green (q.v.). When describing the latter, Martel (1859) noted that By the French it is called Paul Veronese Green , while Salter (1869) stated that French Veronese green was often adulterated with arsenic. The term was stiU apparently in use when Heaton was writing in the early twentieth century. 

Other sources also indicate that Veronese green could be used to mean green earth q.v.-, Toch, 1925 Wehlte, 1975 Grissom, 1986) though it may be that there was a confusion in this context between Verona and Veronese (that is, from Verona ), that city being the location of a famous source of green earth ( Verona earth,. v.).
