Palette Analysis
Boris Kustodiev sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. Warm hues command this palette; Boris Kustodiev favours the reds, oranges, and yellows of firelight and earth. Chroma hovers near zero; colour declares itself through subtle shifts in hue rather than outright saturation. The highest-chroma note - #9A543C - appears at just 5.6%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. 60 units of value range underpin the palette's structural clarity: the eye always knows where light falls. These proportions encode Boris Kustodiev's instinctive sense of how much of each quality the eye can hold.
