Palette Analysis

Values in Antonello da Messina rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. Antonello da Messina orchestrates warmth above all else - reds, ambers, and siennas take the lead. Saturation is deliberately withheld - the beauty here lies in the near-monochromatic gradations rather than colour difference. #B38B66 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (8.3%). The full value range is 66 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. This is palette 5 of Antonello da Messina's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
