Palette Analysis
Light floods Carl Holsøe; the palette keeps values pale and airy across its range. Carl Holsøe builds on cool foundations: the palette favours the blue-cyan-green arc. The absence of saturated colour is itself an expressive choice: this is a palette of restraint and atmosphere. #9E6B3F functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (5.1%). 66 units of value range underpin the palette's structural clarity: the eye always knows where light falls. High luminosity and cool temperature suggest the plein-air condition: unfiltered daylight and open sky. This is palette 2 of Carl Holsøe's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
