The Munsell color system, showing: a circle of hues at value 5 chroma 6; the neutral values from 0 to 10; and the chromas of purple-blue (5PB) at value 5. In colorimetry, the Munsell color system is a color space that specifies colors based on three properties of color: hue (basic color), value ( lightness ), and chroma (color intensity).
ISCC–NBS system. Hue relationships between the primary and secondary colors in the ISCC-NBS system of color designation. The ISCC–NBS System of Color Designation is a system for naming colors based on a set of 13 basic color terms and a small set of adjective modifiers.
This color is defined as purple in the Munsell color system (Munsell 5P). The Munsell color system is a color space that specifies colors based on three color dimensions: hue, value , and chroma (color purity), spaced uniformly in three dimensions in the elongated oval at an angle shaped Munsell color solid according to the logarithmic scale ...

The Munsell color system (Munsell 5G) includes a color defined as green. The Munsell color system is a color space that specifies colors based on three color dimensions: hue, value , and chroma (color purity), spaced uniformly in three dimensions in the elongated oval at an angle shaped Munsell color solid according to the logarithmic scale ...
Farnsworth–Munsell 100 hue test. The Munsell color system, showing: a circle of hues at value 5 chroma 6; the neutral values from 0 to 10; and the chromas of purple-blue (5PB) at value 5. Synonyms.
In some colorspaces or color systems such as Munsell, HCL, and CIELAB, the lightness (value) achromatically constrains the maximum and minimum limits, and operates independently of the hue and chroma. For example Munsell value 0 is pure black, and value 10 is pure white.
The concept of a color system with a hue was explored as early as 1830 with Philipp Otto Runge's color sphere. The Munsell color system from the 1930s was a great step forward, as it was realized that perceptual uniformity means the color space can no longer be a sphere. As a convention, the hue for red is set to 0° for most color spaces with ...
The Munsell color system. The image shows: * The neutral values in steps of 1 from 0 to 10 * A circle of 10 hues at value 5 and chroma 6 * The chromas of purple-blue in steps of 2 from 0 to 12, at value 5 The colors should be
The whole point of Munsell's system is that it doesn't assign any colors to arbitrary names, but instead specifies perceptually uniform hues, values, and chromas based on numerical values. That is, instead of specifying "color terms", its goal is to move us away from a need for color terms, at all. In other words, 5P is not meant to be "Magenta ...
