What is the Munsell colour system?
Albert H. Munsell (1858-1918) is perhaps the most famous name in the field of color. He is known as America’s greatest colourist. Munsell brought clarity to color by establishing an orderly system for accurately identifying every color that exists. The Munsell System is recognized around the globe as the standard for color notation in the worlds of art, business, science, government, and education. It is the universal system for selecting, identifying and controlling color—in short, the universal language of color communication. The Certified Sci\ART Twelve Tone System was developed and tested by Master Munsell Colourist Kathryn Lee Kalisz.
