Mid-key values give Botong Francisco its characteristic quietness - nothing blazes, nothing disappears. Botong Francisco orchestrates warmth above all else - reds, ambers, and siennas take the lead. Saturation is deliberately withheld - the beauty here lies in the near-monochromatic gradations rather than colour difference. The most saturated colour, #81403B, is reserved to 6.6% of the surface, where it acts as a focal punctuation. The full value range is 59 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. In the context of Botong Francisco's full range of palettes, group 2 represents one movement in an ongoing chromatic dialogue.
