Explanation:

Far from bright" hints at something dull or lacking color, which is exactly what "drab" means. The wordplay is straightforward—no tricks here—just a direct definition. If you think of "bright" as lively or vibrant, its opposite would be something muted or unexciting, like a gray, overcast day. That’s "drab" in a nutshell.
