From the English Wikipedia:

The Hercules Graphics Card (HGC) was a computer graphics controller which, through its popularity, became a widely supported display standard. It was common on IBM PC compatibles connected to a monochrome monitor (green, amber, or page white). It supported one high resolution text mode and a single graphics mode.
