Values in Albert Bierstadt rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. Heat pervades this palette; warm chromatic identities outweigh cool ones at almost every weight. Saturation is measured and controlled, giving the palette presence without visual aggression. #DD872F functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (3.5%). 66 units of value range underpin the palette's structural clarity: the eye always knows where light falls. This is palette 12 of Albert Bierstadt's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
