Bister Dark warm brown - a traditional ink and wash pigment made from wood soot.
Palette Analysis
Ary Scheffer sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. Warm hues command this palette; Ary Scheffer favours the reds, oranges, and yellows of firelight and earth. The absence of saturated colour is itself an expressive choice: this is a palette of restraint and atmosphere. The most saturated colour, #825327, is reserved to 8.2% of the surface, where it acts as a focal punctuation. From deepest dark to palest light, the palette traverses 55 units of the value scale - a span that creates natural depth. This is palette 5 of Ary Scheffer's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
