The science of colour sets seven fundamental colours that appear in the optical prisms, which recover into a single colour, white.

However, colours aligned with the principle of composition, were reduced to three: yellow, red and blue, colours from which come all other. Of these three colours, which in themselves contain the principles of complementarity and contrast, are derived by mixing all others. Thus, yellow and violet, red and green, blue and orange, which are complementary colours, are synthesized and merge as inevitability. The ability of two complementary colours, which together with the primary, stem white, is added or evaded, approximate the ideal phenomenon of light.
