<![CDATA[UNESCO has recognized Indonesian Batik's variety of designs and colors as an intangible cultural asset. Pekalongan batik, which is categorized as batik pesisir and is distinguished by its varied and expressive color combination, is one prominent example. Cultural acculturation influenced by China, Japan, India, and the Netherlands has created its visual identity. In order to create a culture-based color reference, this study will map the color variations of sixty hand-drawn Pekalongan batik pieces created between 1910 and 2015. Contemporary batik from current workshops and museum collections are among the research subjects. Digital photography was used for visual documentation, and Adobe Photoshop's color sampling techniques were used for analysis. The findings show that each piece of hand-drawn Pekalongan batik has an average of eight colors, with a total of three to ten colors. According to these results, hand-drawn Pekalongan batik has a consistent and varied color character that might be developed into a regional cultural color palette in the field of Visual Communication Design.]]>
