My recollection is that Annigoni's ingredients were: eggs; linseed oil; water; and white wine. I will try to find more specifically what the proportions of each are for you and get back to you with it. The resulting medium, or vehicle, if you wish, ended up being quite mayonaise-like. It kept for a few days, too. (Of course, there would also be pigment in there).
