This picture is a prime example of bad color combinations. The chroma count on the image is astronomical and as the text says, makes it problematic to read. While making it hard to read, the different colors in no way complement each other simply because each of their values is too high.
The lack of Similarity and Equality in the design on the sweater creates a very chaotic scene in which case the eye has a hard time trying to find a focal point. None of these color do a good job of complimenting each other nor is the contrast the least bit interesting. See, even Bill Cosby is saddened by a very dull color combination. (On a side note: sweaters FTW)
An era of disastrous color combinations would be the 1970's. Here, the dull, monochromatic burnt orange brown furniture and green mustard carpet create eye sores amongst the plain white walls. To make matters worse is the yellow room in the background. Although it's not prominent, the yellow room adds to the unbalance and instability that this picture is.
