THE UNIVERSAL COLOR LANGUAGE Kenneth L. Kelly Preface to 1976 Edition The ISCC-NBS Color Names Dictionary (NBS Circular 553) has gone through six previous printings and has sold nearly 14,000 copies. In the years since this Dictionary became available in January 1956, a number of significant advances have been made in this field of colorimetry. The importance of the Centroid numbers became increasingly clear, so they were added to the appropriate color-name blocks in the color-name charts in section 13 of the 1963 (4th) and subsequent printings. Otherwise the Color Names Dictionary remains exactly the same. The demand for colors to illustrate the color-name blocks was voiced even before publication in November 1955. However, due to the high cost of developing precise colors and the lack of funds, the development of the ISCC-NBS Centroid Colors was delayed until 1965. At that time, they were published with financial assistance from the Color Marketing Group. These colors were produced by the Toby Color Card Company of St. Louis, and the Munsell Color Company of Baltimore supervised the final produc- tion, thus assuring that the Centroid Colors would meet the very stringent tolerances specified for them. The Centroid Color Charts became the first Supplement to the Color Names Dictionary. When the Centroid Color Charts were received in early 1965, there were fewer than 100 copies of the Color Names Dictionary in stock at the Government Printing Office. Since it would have required some time to update the Dictionary, it was reprinted with- out change (5th printing, 5/12/65). The necessary revisions including a description of the Centroid Colors were then incorporated into a paper entitled A Universal Color Language (UCL), also published in 1965. That paper is the second Supplement to the Color Names Dictionary. Since the Color Names Dictionary is still the basic document in this field of color and is now out of stock, it is being reprinted (7th printing) and updated by revising The Universal Color Language and publishing it along with the Dictionary. The Color Names Dictionary, The Universal Color Language and the Centroid Color Charts form a com- plete unit and are most useful when purchased together. For the first time all three items can be purchased from the Office of Standard Reference Materials, National Bureau of Standards. In addition, this volume containing the UCL and the Color Names Dictionarj' can be purchased from the Superintendent of Documents, Government Printing Office. The National Bureau of Standards is again happy to acknowledge the cooperative nature of this project and to express its appreciation to all those who have made it possible. Kenneth L.

It serves as the means of updating the Dictionary. The UCL brings together all the well known color-order systems and methods of designating color. It interrelates them in six correlated levels of fineness of color designation, each higher level in- dicating a finer division of the color

    How the Sun Paints the Sky The generation of its colour and luminosity Bob Fosbury European Southern Observatory and University College London Introduction: the 19th century context — science and painting The appearance of a brilliantly clear night sky must surely have stimulated the curiosity of our earliest ancestors and provided them with the foundation upon which their descendants built the entire edifice of science. This is a conclusion that would be dramatically affirmed if any one of us were to look upwards in clear weather from a location that is not polluted by artificial light: an increasingly rare possibility now, but one that provides a welcome regeneration of the sense of wonder. What happened when our ancient ancestors gazed instead at the sky in daylight or twilight? It is difficult to gauge from written evidence as there was such variation in the language of description among different cultures (see “Sky in a bottle” by Peter Pesic. MIT Press, 2005. ISBN 0-262-16234-2). The blue colour of a cloudless sky was described in a remarkable variety of language, but the question of its cause most often remained in the realm of a superior being. Its nature did concern the Greek philosophers but they appeared to describe surfaces and objects in the language of texture rather than colour: they did not have a word for blue. It was only during the last millennium that thinkers really tried to get to grips with the problem, with Leonardo da Vinci, Isaac Newton and Johann Wolfgang von Goethe all applying themselves. It was not easy however, and no real progress was made until the mid-19th century when there was a focus of the greatest scientific minds of the time on the problem of both the colour and the what was then the novel property of polarisation of the light.

  • Color Matters

    Color Matters

    Color Matters Color plays a vitally important role in the world in which we live. Color can sway thinking, change actions, and cause reactions. It can irritate or soothe your eyes, raise your blood pressure or suppress your appetite. When used in the right ways, color can even save on energy consumption. As a powerful form of communication, color is irreplaceable. Red means "stop" and green means "go." Traffic lights send this universal message. Likewise, the colors used for a product, web site, business card, or logo cause powerful reactions. Color Matters! Basic Color Theory Color theory encompasses a multitude of definitions, concepts and design applications. There are enough to fill several encyclopedias. However, there are basic categories of color theory. They are the color wheel and the color harmony. Color theories create a logical structure for color. For example, if we have an assortment of fruits and vegetables, we can organize them by color and place them on a circle that shows the colors in relation to each other. The Color Wheel A color wheel is traditional in the field of art. Sir Isaac Newton developed the first color wheel in 1666. Since then, scientists and artists have studied a number of variations of this concept. Different opinions of one format of color wheel over another sparks debate. In reality, any color wheel which is logically arranged has merit. 1 The definitions of colors are based on the color wheel. There are primary colors, secondary colors, and tertiary colors. Primary Colors: Red, yellow and blue o In traditional color theory, primary colors are the 3 colors that cannot be mixed or formed by any combination of other colors.
