Violet

"Violet is the color of light at the short wavelength end of the visible spectrum, between blue and invisible ultraviolet. However, even among native speakers of English there is confusion about the meaning of the term, for example when comparing speakers from the United Kingdom with those from the United States (see more below). Violet is one of the seven colors that Isaac Newton labeled when dividing the spectrum of visible light in 1672. Violet light has a wavelength between approximately 380 and 435 nanometers. The color´s name is derived from the violet flower.

In the RGB color model used in computer and television screens, violet is produced by mixing red and blue light, with more blue than red. In the RYB color model historically used by painters, violet and purple are created with a combination of red and blue pigments, and both colors are located between blue and red on the color wheel. In the CMYK color model used in printing, violet is created with a combination of magenta and cyan pigments, with more magenta than cyan." - (en.wikipedia.org 10.11.2021)
