(57) [Problem] To provide an ink composition capable of realizing a recorded image having excellent color reproducibility and image reproducibility. SOLUTION: This is a dark yellow ink composition used in a recording method using at least two kinds of yellow ink compositions of a normal yellow ink composition and a dark yellow ink composition, and is a spectroscopy of a 1000-fold diluted solution with water. L * a * b * color system b calculated from characteristics The absolute value of * / a * is 0.83 or more, and the b * value is 0 or more, and the b * value of the normal yellow ink composition calculated from the spectral characteristics of a 1000-fold diluted solution with water And as a coloring agent, the following formulas (I) and (II): Embedded image At least one first colorant selected from the group consisting of compounds represented by, and at least one second colorant selected from the group consisting of magenta dyes, cyan dyes, and black dyes A dark yellow ink composition comprising: |
