Abstract
An ink set of radiation curable ink jet inks each of which contains polymerizable compounds, includes a color ink and a clear ink, the polymerizable compounds contained in the clear ink include a monomer A having a hydroxy group and a monomer B having a volume of 0.26 nm3 or more and a height direction area of 0.25 nm2 or more with respect to a long side each of which is defined by the Van der Waals radii, and a total content of the monomer A and the monomer B is 80 percent by mass or more with respect to a total mass of the polymerizable compounds contained in the clear ink.
