The story

What Is The King of Color About?

The premise of The King of Color without spoilers.

At 96, Lawrence Herbert—dubbed the King of Color—is a visionary whose groundbreaking effort to bring order to the chaotic, subjective world of hue remains largely unheralded. Raised in Depression‑era Brooklyn, he entered the print and manufacturing trades, where he began translating his singular vision into a systematic approach that would later influence how color is defined and reproduced across industries.
