Palette Analysis
Mid-key values give Cándido López its characteristic quietness - nothing blazes, nothing disappears. Blues and teal-greys govern the palette, lending it an aquatic or atmospheric quality. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. #817344 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (7.3%). The palette spans 40 value units: a measured range that delivers coherence over drama. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively. Palette 1 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Cándido López's complete body of work advances.
