Yves Klein Blue Color – #00008b: Codes and Complete Breakdown

Yves Klein registered International Klein Blue in 1960, its punch coming from ultramarine suspended in a matte resin binder he developed with paint dealer Edouard Adam. He wanted a blue that kept the raw pigment’s glow instead of dulling under oil. It still hypnotizes on any surface.
