Munsell Colors - Introduction (2017 August 2nd)

Very brief presentation of the Munsell system using samples from various Munsell books and educational materials. I don't insist much on the HVC (Hue Value Chroma) notation because my goal is to expose the viewer to what the Munsell colors are all about.

Bonjour Roger, je viens de tomber sur votre chaîne. La couleur est une de mes premières passions, savez-vous de quelle façon je pourrais me procurrer ces documents ? En tout cas, bravo pour votre travail, c'est très impressionnant !

[@MuriloIto1]

Excellent! Thank you!

[@vedros6822]

Oh wow, the price is out of this world.

[@christowalter5815]

shall we use this system for identifying heartwood color?

[@eyeonart6865]

Wonderfu, but do you use it often?

[@mariacoy1482]

Where do I buy that Munsell Book of Color ? Is that the glossy edition? I bout the student edition but all the chips were missing. Had to return it. This one company I looked into said if I open the package and the book it not refundable. Need a good source to go buy the book.

[@rogerbreton6412]

Go to Xrite.com to find out more about the Munsell Book of Color and how to purchase it, if you're interested. Be aware that Xrite only sells the "Full" 100 swatches Munsell Book of colors. Not cheap but very much worth it. Garanteed not to fade for many years of service. Made from super stable pigments. You get what you pay for :-)

[@hengzhu5174]

[@rogerbreton6412]

[@annechesley8565]

Dont get the 4th addition!!!

[@alicemonsell1352]

I want to know if Albert Munsell is my relative! My name used to be spelled Munsell, from Greenport, New York.

[@cg9612]

That is very very cool!!!!

[@dorrisgonnawreckyou7111]

Shame it costs $1000 lol! insane!

[@trapez77]

Why did Munsell think that the color wheel should include red-purple and blue-purple? Purple is already red-blue.

[@rogerbreton6412]

It's a good question.

[@crgofficial2187]

Warmer purple and a cooler purple, dependenent on the red or blue ratios

[@pablojosecambar184]
