RED OR YELLOW?

Does anyone know of two pigments that when mixed together is redder or yellower...as the blue is bluer.... than either of the two original pigments?
Glazing Cadmium Red Medium with Alizarin Crimson CAN make the red redder but that is not mixing. That's layers. Where does the idea of Three Primary Colors come from? Does it come from before the industrial revolution which produced PG7 (Pthalo green) and dioxyline purple (PV 23 RS)? Just asking.
