Palette Analysis

Values in capriccio rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. Yellow, ochre, sienna: warm hues deployed as the palette's primary energy. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. The highest-chroma note - #83604A - appears at just 9.8%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. A value spread of 70 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light.
