Caravaggio Palette 7
Nocturnal Terracotta
Nocturnal Night-register palette - very low values, the world after dark.
Terracotta Fired clay red-orange - the color of unglazed earthenware pottery.
Palette Analysis
Caravaggio keeps values measured and balanced, a hallmark of tonal restraint. Warm hues command this palette; Caravaggio favours the reds, oranges, and yellows of firelight and earth. Saturation is measured and controlled, giving the palette presence without visual aggression. The highest-chroma note - #895E28 - appears at just 8.0%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. The full value range is 65 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. This is palette 7 of Caravaggio's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
