The Munsell color system is a color space that specifies colors based on three color dimensions: hue, value ( lightness), and chroma (color purity), spaced uniformly (according to the logarithmic scale which governs human perception) in three dimensions in the Munsell color solid, which is shaped like an elongated oval at an angle. The hues of the Munsell color system, at varying values, and maximum chroma to stay in the sRGB gamut It is a spectral color which lies at, or near, the short-wave (violet) end of the traditional 'blue' and possibly was classified as ' indigo' by Newton.
