Easiest way is to run:
        
     xwininfo 

and click on the Netscape window.  You can also look at the default visual
(which is what apps come up in unless they override and pick their own
visual):

     xdpyinfo | grep 'default visual id'

That'll give you a visual ID for the default visual.  Then:
       
     xdpyinfo | more

and look at the visual section with that ID.  For example, here:

     default visual id:  0x22

  visual:
    visual id:    0x22
    class:    TrueColor
    depth:    16 planes
    available colormap entries:    64 per subfield
    red, green, blue masks:    0xf800, 0x7e0, 0x1f
    significant bits in color specification:    6 bits
