Alfred Kubin occupies the comfortable middle of the value scale, avoiding both extremes to hold the eye in a sustained middle grey. Warm hues command this palette; Alfred Kubin favours the reds, oranges, and yellows of firelight and earth. Chroma hovers near zero; colour declares itself through subtle shifts in hue rather than outright saturation. Only 9.4% is devoted to #6F5F46, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. A value spread of 64 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light. In the context of Alfred Kubin's full range of palettes, group 2 represents one movement in an ongoing chromatic dialogue.
