COLOUR SYSTEMS & THEORIES

RUNGE'S COLOUR SPHERE 1806



Munsell's Colour Wheel

HUE: Munsell called red, yellow, green, blue, and purple “principal hues” and placed them at equal intervals around a circle. He inserted five intermediate hues: yellow-red, green-yellow, blue-green, purple-blue and red-purple, making ten hues in all. For simplicity, he used the initials as symbols to designate the ten hue sectors: R, YR, Y, GY, G, BG, B, PB, P, and RP.
