allegorical painting sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. The palette orchestrates warmth above all else - reds, ambers, and siennas take the lead. All colours lean toward grey, building depth through value rather than colour punch. #674836 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (9.3%). The full value range is 56 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form.
