Palette Analysis
Bernhard Strigel occupies the comfortable middle of the value scale, avoiding both extremes to hold the eye in a sustained middle grey. Yellow, ochre, sienna: warm hues that Bernhard Strigel deploys as the palette's primary energy. Chroma is moderate: colours carry enough saturation to be read as colour, but the palette stops well short of garish intensity. The saturated accent, #8A2C21, registers at 6.3% - sparse enough to feel like a deliberate surprise. From deepest dark to palest light, the palette traverses 55 units of the value scale - a span that creates natural depth. Palette 2 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Bernhard Strigel's complete body of work advances.
