Darkness anchors Abstract Expressionism; light is rationed, creating dramatic contrast rather than open air. Cool hues prevail: blues, greens, and greys anchor the palette's emotional temperature. The chromatic intensity here is exceptional - colours compete with each other at near-peak saturation. #050219 at 34.2% of the palette: an overwhelming presence that pulls all other colours into its gravitational field. The chromatic peak belongs to #151457, and at 1.4% it dominates, not decorates. A value spread of 72 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light.
