Color solid

<p>A color solid is the <a href="/facts/Three-dimensional_space/KAqKWUbS">three-dimensional</a> representation of a <a href="/facts/Color_space/zFvEyfHv">color space</a> or <a href="/facts/Color_model/PRcgeJE4">model</a> and can be thought as an analog of, for example, the <a href="/facts/One-dimensional_space/bC4W2dHd">one-dimensional</a> <a href="/facts/Color_wheel/RxVBIr7g">color wheel</a>, which depicts the variable of <a href="/facts/Hue/9qufc1ap">hue</a> (similarity with red, yellow, green, blue, etc.); or the 2D <a href="/facts/Chromaticity/eMDuJLsk">chromaticity diagram</a> (or the <a href="/facts/Color_triangle/1L0R4MaE">color triangle</a>), which depicts the variables of hue and <a href="/facts/Colorfulness/WaePy7Ga">spectral purity</a>. The added <a href="/facts/Dimension/0ktmUyac">spatial dimension</a> allows a color solid to depict the three dimensions of color: lightness (gradations of light and dark, <a href="/facts/Tint%2c_shade_and_tone/CTH7hXvQ">tints or shades</a>), hue, and <a href="/facts/Colorfulness/WaePy7Ga">colorfulness</a>, allowing the solid to depict all conceivable colors in an organized three-dimensional structure.
