Basile Lemeunier is strongly light-biased - shadow is suggested rather than declared. Basile Lemeunier balances warm and cool with remarkable evenness, giving the composition its characteristic vibrancy. Mid-saturation across the board: the palette has colour character without chromatic excess. #E8C982 is not a small accent - at 37.5% it qualifies as a major presence and gives the palette its chromatic identity. The full value range is 56 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. The palette reads as an Impressionist one - light-biased, chromatically direct, and built on temperature contrast rather than value opposition. Palette 2 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Basile Lemeunier's complete body of work advances.
