Abstract: With an image processing apparatus, a captured image to be used for obtaining color information of an object is specified based on a designated virtual viewpoint from among multiple captured images obtained by capturing images of the object from different positions. Color information of the object in a virtual viewpoint image is determined based on the color information of the object obtained from the specified captured image. The virtual viewpoint image is generated based on the determined color information of the object. In a case where a structure occluding the object is included in the specified captured image, a captured image that is different from the specified captured image is specified as the captured image to be used for obtaining the color information of the object, based on color information of the structure.
