Palette Analysis
Boris Kustodiev keeps values measured and balanced, a hallmark of tonal restraint. Temperature is cool-dominant, with blue and green families claiming the largest areas. Saturation is deliberately withheld - the beauty here lies in the near-monochromatic gradations rather than colour difference. The saturated accent, #C9B17B, registers at 5.3% - sparse enough to feel like a deliberate surprise. The full value range is 60 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. High luminosity and cool temperature suggest the plein-air condition: unfiltered daylight and open sky. In the context of Boris Kustodiev's full range of palettes, group 15 represents one movement in an ongoing chromatic dialogue.
