Earlier today my iPad [ iPadOS 18.6.2 / Magic Keyboard + Pen ] was working as it normally does. I closed (folded down) the screen as I do after every session. This evening when ‘opening’ the screen to start work, I discover that the display is now monochrome. In the interim the iPad has been unattended.
Is there a keystroke combination which restores colour or is this a sign of something more serious?
Thanks for any suggestions :)

If the screen colours are not as expected, you need to check some key Accessibility settings that are intended to compensate for specific colour-vision issues:
Settings > Accessibility > Display & Text Size
Ensure that all settings enclosed within the red box above are switched OFF/Disabled.
Otherwise, depending upon your installed version of iOS/iPadOS, you’ll need to look at your Dark Mode settings:
Settings > Display & Brightness > [Appearance]
