Palette Analysis

The value structure of C. R. W. Nevinson is mid-key: quiet, controlled, and cohesive. Cool tones set the register here - the blues and greens easily outweigh any warm accents. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. The most saturated colour, #7B6C4B, is reserved to 7.2% of the surface, where it acts as a focal punctuation. 47 units of value spread create a palette that is varied but unified - contrast in the service of harmony. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively. This is palette 9 of C. R. W. Nevinson's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
