Ambrogio Bergognone Palette 3
Muted Tawny

Tawny Warm orange-brown - a traditional term for the color of tanned leather or lion fur.
Palette Analysis
Ambrogio Bergognone 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. The highest-chroma note - #BD654E - appears at just 4.8%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. The value range of 51 units sits in the comfortable middle: enough depth, enough light, neither extreme. This is palette 3 of Ambrogio Bergognone's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
