Preferred term

color  

Definition(s)

  • Color is a subjective quality that depends partly on the vagaries of the human visual system and the way the brain interprets the wavelength distribution of the light entering the eye. The phenomenon of color has two aspects: the physical or optical – concerned with the nature of the light – and the physiological or visual – dealing with how the eye sees color. (Encyclopedia of Science, by David Darling, https://www.daviddarling.info/encyclopedia/C/color.html)
