*Winsor & Newton makes the Cotman line, but the Cotman line is not the quality of the Winsor & Newton line. Some art supply stores, because Winsor & Newton makes Cotman, will tell you Cotman line is the same as the Winsor & Newton line. They are not of the same quality. INSIST ON, AND ACCEPT ONLY, THE WINSOR & NEWTON LINE OF WATER COLOURS AND BRUSHES.
