Palette Analysis
Albrecht Durer works in the upper reaches of the value scale, creating an atmosphere of brightness and expansiveness. The palette achieves thermal balance - reds and blues, ochres and greens, each holding the other in check. Chroma hovers near zero; colour declares itself through subtle shifts in hue rather than outright saturation. The highest-chroma note - #805E3F - appears at just 3.9%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. 65 units of value range underpin the palette's structural clarity: the eye always knows where light falls. This is palette 2 of Albrecht Durer's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
