A color measurement apparatus to which a colorimeter that measures a color of a color measurement target is configured to be attached, includes a support base of the color measurement target, a carriage that supports the colorimeter, a gantry that supports the carriage, a first scanning mechanism that causes the carriage to perform scanning in a first direction on the support base, and a second scanning mechanism that causes the gantry to perform scanning in a second direction, in which the first scanning mechanism includes a first motor that generates a driving force for causing the carriage to perform scanning in the first direction, and a first transmission mechanism portion that transmits the driving force from the first motor to the carriage, and the first motor overlaps the gantry in a third direction.
