Eternity vs Gravity
Where Eternity belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Gravity is a Valspar color. Both sit in the grey family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Gravity (LRV 56) reflects noticeably more light than Eternity (LRV 52), a difference of 4 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. At ΔE 1.7, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room. Below you'll find 2 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Eternity vs Gravity in Real Spaces
2 real rooms side by side. Eternity and Gravity are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.
Living Room
In a living room, color works across both daylight and evening light — the same wall can read very differently at noon and at 8pm. The brightness difference is modest but present — Gravity gives the walls a little more lift.

Eternity vs Gravity Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Eternity on one side and Gravity on the other.
Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
