Achille Funi Palette 1

Palette Analysis

Values in Achille Funi rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. Achille Funi builds on cool foundations: the palette favours the blue-cyan-green arc. Chroma is kept low across all colours, producing the soft, enveloping quality that characterises tonal painting. A single dominant - #3A352E at 31.8% - sets the character of the whole composition. The highest-chroma note - #B06A3F - appears at just 4.7%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. 55 units of value range underpin the palette's structural clarity: the eye always knows where light falls. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively. This is palette 1 of Achille Funi's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
