Abraham van Strij is high-key - luminous, open, and weighted toward light. Blues and teal-greys govern the palette, lending it an aquatic or atmospheric quality. Saturation is deliberately withheld - the beauty here lies in the near-monochromatic gradations rather than colour difference. The saturated accent, #5C4F28, registers at 5.1% - sparse enough to feel like a deliberate surprise. From deepest dark to palest light, the palette traverses 63 units of the value scale - a span that creates natural depth. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively. Palette 2 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Abraham van Strij's complete body of work advances.
