Palette Analysis
Baroque is built on dark foundations, with values clustered toward shadow. Blues and teal-greys govern the palette, lending it an aquatic or atmospheric quality. All colours lean toward grey, building depth through value rather than colour punch. #1A1815 at 28.1% of the palette: an overwhelming presence that pulls all other colours into its gravitational field. Only 2.4% is devoted to #AC7E48, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. A value spread of 59 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light. Together these qualities place the palette firmly in the tonal tradition - concerned with mood and atmosphere rather than chromatic display.
