List of colors

Color is an important part of the visual arts.

The following is a complete list of colors with their associated articles. Note that a large percentage of the color swatches below are taken from domain-specific naming schemes, such as X11 or HTML4. RGB values are given for each swatch, because such standards are defined in terms of the sRGB color space. It is not possible to accurately convert many of these swatches to CMYK values, because of the differing gamuts of the two spaces. But the color management systems, built into operating systems and image editing software, can attempt such conversions as accurately as possible.

The HSV (Hue, Saturation, Value) color space values, also known as HSB (Hue, Saturation, Brightness) and the Hex Triplets (for HTML web colors) are also given in the following table. Colors which appear on the web-safe color palette — which includes the sixteen named colors — are noted.[1] (Those four named colors corresponding to the neutral grays can be rendered with any Hue value, which is effectively ignored.) The appearance of the actual color swatches displayed below will vary, depending on many parameters, such as the properties of the display device, its color management settings and the viewing surround conditions.[2]

Note also that color naming is fuzzy and arbitrary, and varies among people and cultures; no single swatch is adequately representative of any particular color name. Additionally, computer displays have a somewhat limited gamut, so many colorful pigments cannot be represented on screen at all and computer simulation of the natural world is, at best, a rough approximation.
