Academicism distributes its values across the middle register, creating harmony without high contrast. Yellow, ochre, sienna: warm hues deployed as the palette's primary energy. The absence of saturated colour is itself an expressive choice: this is a palette of restraint and atmosphere. #1F1A19 at 28.9% of the palette: an overwhelming presence that pulls all other colours into its gravitational field. The most saturated colour, #92532F, is reserved to 3.7% of the surface, where it acts as a focal punctuation. The full value range is 63 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form.
