Palette Analysis
August Macke distributes its values across the middle register, creating harmony without high contrast. August Macke tilts toward cool - blues and silver-greys carry the structural weight. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. #E6DAC4 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (11.6%). From deepest dark to palest light, the palette traverses 61 units of the value scale - a span that creates natural depth. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively. This is palette 5 of August Macke's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
