Palette Analysis
Carl Bloch sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. The palette achieves thermal balance - reds and blues, ochres and greens, each holding the other in check. Chroma hovers near zero; colour declares itself through subtle shifts in hue rather than outright saturation. At 6.6%, #7C412A carries the palette's sharpest chromatic charge: an accent that earns its place precisely because it is withheld. 79 units of value range underpin the palette's structural clarity: the eye always knows where light falls. This is palette 6 of Carl Bloch's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
