Values in Andre Derain rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. Andre Derain keeps warm and cool in parity, a balance that lends the work a perceptual shimmer. Saturation is deliberately withheld - the beauty here lies in the near-monochromatic gradations rather than colour difference. At 5.6%, #CD965D carries the palette's sharpest chromatic charge: an accent that earns its place precisely because it is withheld. The value range of 54 units sits in the comfortable middle: enough depth, enough light, neither extreme. Palette 6 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Andre Derain's complete body of work advances.
