Values in Carl Gustav Carus rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. Heat pervades this palette; warm chromatic identities outweigh cool ones at almost every weight. Mid-range chroma keeps the palette grounded - colourful but not strident. Only 1.6% is devoted to #D49E51, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. Spanning 52 units on the value axis, the palette achieves the balance between tonal flatness and fragmentation. This is palette 3 of Carl Gustav Carus's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
