Light floods Baroque; the palette keeps values pale and airy across its range. The palette balances warm and cool with remarkable evenness, giving the composition its characteristic vibrancy. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. Only 5.8% is devoted to #6A573B, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. 65 units of value range underpin the palette's structural clarity: the eye always knows where light falls.
