The types and concentrations of multiple anodic electrochromic compounds are selected in such a manner that RGmax is 1.37 or less, in which RGmax is a maximum value among ratios between RGB signal ratios in the transmission state of an electrochromic device and in colored states of the anodic electrochromic compounds, the RGB signal ratios are obtained from TA(λ) and the sensitivity of a photodetector, and TA(λ) is a normalized variable transmittance obtained by a combination of absorptions of the anodic electrochromic compounds.
