Palette Analysis

Values in Anthony van Dyck rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. Heat pervades this palette; warm chromatic identities outweigh cool ones at almost every weight. Chroma is kept low across all colours, producing the soft, enveloping quality that characterises tonal painting. Only 4.2% is devoted to #C09D3D, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. A value spread of 58 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light. This is palette 8 of Anthony van Dyck's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
