Black-and-white
Black-and-white (B&W or B/W) images combine black and white to produce a range of achromatic brightnesses of grey.The history of various visual media began with black and white, and as technology improved, altered to color.Black and white was also prevalent in early television broadcasts, which were displayed by changing the intensity of monochrome phosphurs on the inside of the screen, before the introduction of colour from the 1950s onwards.Black and white continues to be used in certain sections of the modern arts field, either stylistically or to invoke the perception of a historic work or setting.1961 was the last year in which the majority of Hollywood films were released in black and white.
