Palette Analysis
The high-key values of Aristarkh Lentulov give it an effulgent, almost bleached quality. Blues and teal-greys govern the palette, lending it an aquatic or atmospheric quality. Saturation is deliberately withheld - the beauty here lies in the near-monochromatic gradations rather than colour difference. The most saturated colour, #BCA572, is reserved to 6.5% of the surface, where it acts as a focal punctuation. The full value range is 55 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. High luminosity and cool temperature suggest the plein-air condition: unfiltered daylight and open sky. This is palette 1 of Aristarkh Lentulov's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
