孟塞尔颜色系统

Wikipedia · 2025-07-29 维基百科 👁 1 阅读

孟塞尔颜色系统（Munsell Color System）是色度（或比色法）裡透過明度（value）、色相（hue）及彩度（chroma）三個維度來描述顏色的方法。這個颜色描述系统是由美国艺术家（Albert H. Munsell，1858－1918）在1898年创制的，在1930年代為USDA採納為泥土研究的官方顏色描述系統。至今仍是比较色法的标准。

早期的幾個色彩體系將顏色放在各種不同的三維色立體，但孟塞尔是第一個把色調、明度和彩度分離成為感知均勻和獨立的尺度，並且是第一個系統地在三維空間中表達顏色的關係。孟塞尔的系統，尤其是其後的再标记法，是基於嚴格的人類受試者測量的視覺反應，使之具有堅實的實驗科學依據。基於人類的視覺感知，孟塞尔的系統熬過了其他現代色彩模式的挑戰，儘管在某些領域其地位已被某些特殊用途的模型取代了，如CIELAB（Lab*）和。孟塞尔的系統目前仍然是最廣泛使用的系統。

中华人民共和国推荐性国家标准 GB/T 15608-2006《中国颜色体系》中定义了一种孟塞尔颜色系统的规范形式。

解說
孟塞尔颜色系统的空间大致成一个圆柱形：

色相
*经度=色相（hue）。把一周均分成五5種主色互相调和成五種中间色，相邻的两个位置之间再均分10份，共100份。

红（R）、红黄（YR）、黄（Y）、黄绿（GY）、绿（G）、绿蓝（BG）、蓝（B）、蓝紫（PB）、紫（P）、紫红（RP）

明度
*南北上下轴=明度（value）的深淺，從全黑（N0）至全灰（N5）到全白（N10）。

彩度
距轴的距离=彩度（chroma），表示顏色的纯度。其数值从中间（0）向外随着顏色的纯度增加，没有理论上的上限（普通的颜色实际上限为10左右，反光、荧光等材料可高达30）。由于人眼对各种颜色的敏感度不同，彩度不一定与每个顏色和明度组合相匹配。

具体颜色的标识形式为：色相 明度/彩度。例如5B 5/10是中等明度（5），高彩度（10）的正蓝色（5B）。

Note that the Munsell Book of Color contains more color samples than this chart for both 5PB and 5Y (particularly bright yellows, up to 5Y 8.5/14), however they are not reproducible in the sRGB color space, which has a limited color gamut designed to match that of televisions and computer displays. Note also that there are no samples for values 0 (pure black) and 10 (pure white), which are theoretical limits not reachable in pigment, and no printed samples of value 1.

  • A concise introduction to the Munsell color system, on a web page which also discusses several other color systems, putting the Munsell system in its historical context.
  • Munsell’s original description of his system. A Color Notation was published before he had established the irregular shape of a perceptual color solid, so it describes colors positioned in a sphere.
