Consisting of or displaying only one color or shades of one color. Often refers to black and white imagery or art using a single color palette.
From Greek 'monos' meaning 'single' and 'chroma' meaning 'color'. The term was first used in English in the mid-17th century to describe paintings executed in shades of a single color.
Monochrome art proves that limitation can enhance rather than restrict creativity. By removing color, artists force viewers to focus on form, texture, and composition - sometimes revealing more truth than a full color palette ever could.
