Bernardini Ramazzini - From the Materials category:
-from Disease of Workers, the first known treatise, 1713...
I have observed that nearly all the painters I know, both in this and other cities, are sickly. Especially the most distinguished. For they handle and smell red lead, cinnabar, white lead, varnish, nut oil and linseed oil, as well as pigments made from various mineral substances. (Bernardini Ramazzini)
