Palette Analysis
Baroque is built on dark foundations, with values clustered toward shadow. Temperature reads distinctly warm: the reds and earth tones carry the compositional weight. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. #110C0C at 30.8% of the palette: an overwhelming presence that pulls all other colours into its gravitational field. The saturated accent, #C89555, registers at 2.6% - sparse enough to feel like a deliberate surprise. 66 units of value range underpin the palette's structural clarity: the eye always knows where light falls. Together these qualities place the palette firmly in the tonal tradition - concerned with mood and atmosphere rather than chromatic display.
