Just this blue
 
 
 

5,280,000 square pixels of pure, natural ultramarine, finely ground by hand from
a small piece of lapis lazuli, acquired at enormous expense and great personal
danger by an intrepid great uncle of Edwin Drood during an expedition to the
Sar-i Sang mines in the Badakhshan Province of northeastern Afghanistan.

There remained just enough of the resulting powder for the lettering of the headline.
