Colour

This colourful painting, Improvisation XXVI (Rowing) , was created by Kandinsky in 1933. The many colours in this painting are also called hues (eg. red is a hue). One is able to see colour, light or dark, by the reflection or saturation of light. When white is added to a colour, that colour will be bright as it reflects much light. If there is no white added to a colour, it is considered pure and will saturate much light. [MH] {NR}
