The present technology relates to a reproduction device, a reproduction method, and a recording medium capable of displaying graphics with a broader dynamic range of luminance and appropriate brightness. An optical disc records STN_table associating HDR graphics, which are graphics having a second luminance range different from and broader than a first luminance range, with tone_mapping_info including HDR information indicating a luminance characteristic of the HDR graphics and tone_mapping_info, which is tone mapping definition information used when luminance conversion from the HDR graphics to STD graphics which are graphics having the first luminance range is performed, the HDR graphics, and the tone_mapping_info. The present technology is applicable to a recording medium recording graphics.

To allow a better coordination between an image creation artist such as a movie director of photography and the final viewer (via the display and its built-in image processing), we describe method of adding image defining information to an input image signal (I), comprising: showing the input image (I) to a human operator; receiving via a user interface (303, 308) descriptive data (D) from the human operator, the descriptive data (D) including at least luminance values and/or geometrical shape information on the one hand, and a regime descriptor (rd) on the other hand; encoding into an output description data signal (DDO), relatable to an output image signal (O) based upon the input image signal (I), of the descriptive data (D) in a technical format standardized to be intended for use by a receiving display to control its image processing for changing the color properties of its rendered images.
