#4A177B sits at 271° on the color wheel, placing it in the violet family of the cool half of the spectrum. With 68% saturation and 29% lightness, it reads as a richly saturated, shadowed tone — a weighted, dramatic presence with deep undertones. Its RGB mix of 74, 23, 123 produces a 12.35:1 contrast ratio against white, which clears WCAG AAA for body text in that pairing.
In RGB space #4A177B is a close cousin of CSS indigo — about 24 units away from #4B0082. Designers reach for violet hues at this saturation when the brief calls for a conversational, mid-energy register, and at this lightness when they want weight, depth, and grounded contrast. On screen the cool cast tends to pair best with warm neutrals in the 25°-45° range to add life.
