Andrea del Verrocchio Palette 2

Palette Analysis

Andrea del Verrocchio occupies the comfortable middle of the value scale, avoiding both extremes to hold the eye in a sustained middle grey. Cool tones set the register here - the blues and greens easily outweigh any warm accents. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. #B79C5B delivers the chromatic peak at only 7.9% - a small shot of colour with outsized visual impact. At 65 units of value range, the palette has the tonal breadth to sustain complex spatial readings. High luminosity and cool temperature suggest the plein-air condition: unfiltered daylight and open sky. In the context of Andrea del Verrocchio's full range of palettes, group 2 represents one movement in an ongoing chromatic dialogue.
