Palette Analysis
Mid-key values give allegorical painting its characteristic quietness - nothing blazes, nothing disappears. Warm hues command this palette; it favours the reds, oranges, and yellows of firelight and earth. Chroma is kept low across all colours, producing the soft, enveloping quality that characterises tonal painting. #A17854 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (5.1%). A value spread of 63 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light.
