Although invented by Albert H. Munsell, Michel E. Chevreul, was also working with hue, value, and Chroma. Compare the first three designs (Chevreul's) to the two designs of color systems after Chevreul. They were about change. This is the cognitive rhythm beginning. Art literacy is metacognitively showing you color systems were expressed by the same ideas differently and much better.

First, you see the image of Michel Chevreul's 1855 color classification diagram (click image to see enlargement) from a 19th century book by Benjamin Silliman.
This link goes to Silliman's entire work on Google Books, First principles of physics: or Natural philosophy, designed for the use of schools and colleges on Google Books. You are welcome to peruse this literature.
These are images of both old and new representations. Designers are helpful when they use color to create new concepts and ways of looking at old ideas.
At the web site, you will visit figures 2 and 3, Michel Chevreul's The Principle of Harmony and Contrast of Colors color plate VI. These images are accompanied by later representations, figures 4 and 5.
