A first image obtained by capturing white paper placed under an illuminant having known illuminant information using an image capturing device is input together with identification information of the illuminant, and illuminant information of the illuminant having the known illuminant information is obtained together with the identification information of the illuminant. A table is generated by associating a chromaticity of the first image with the obtained illuminant information based on the identification information. A second image obtained by capturing the white paper placed under an illuminant having unknown illuminant information using the image capturing device is input, and illuminant information of the illuminant having the unknown illuminant information is estimated from a chromaticity of the second image by referring to the table.
