Palette Analysis

Abbott Handerson Thayer distributes its values across the middle register, creating harmony without high contrast. Cool tones set the register here - the blues and greens easily outweigh any warm accents. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. #D2C995 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (8.6%). A value spread of 68 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light. High luminosity and cool temperature suggest the plein-air condition: unfiltered daylight and open sky. Abbott Handerson Thayer's palette 7 carries its own internal logic while remaining in conversation with the artist's broader colour intelligence.
