Palette Analysis
The value structure of Bernhard Strigel is mid-key: quiet, controlled, and cohesive. Temperature reads distinctly warm: the reds and earth tones from Bernhard Strigel carry the compositional weight. Saturation is measured and controlled, giving the palette presence without visual aggression. #EE462D delivers the chromatic peak at only 4.8% - a small shot of colour with outsized visual impact. From deepest dark to palest light, the palette traverses 57 units of the value scale - a span that creates natural depth. This is palette 1 of Bernhard Strigel's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
