Alessandro Magnasco keeps values measured and balanced, a hallmark of tonal restraint. The palette achieves thermal balance - reds and blues, ochres and greens, each holding the other in check. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. #91562E delivers the chromatic peak at only 8.4% - a small shot of colour with outsized visual impact. At 63 units of value range, the palette has the tonal breadth to sustain complex spatial readings. In the context of Alessandro Magnasco's full range of palettes, group 1 represents one movement in an ongoing chromatic dialogue.
