Colorimetry

Colorimetry, or colour theory, is the science of colour.

It includes:

  • the perception of colour by the human eye and brain
  • the origin of colour in materials
  • the theory of colour in art
  • the physics of visible light

Colorimetry is primarily concerned with an objective and measurable evaluation and definition of colour valences (the visual perception of colour), as well as their relationships to one another.
