Palette Analysis
Values in Carl Larsson tilt decisively toward white, giving the palette its luminous character. Carl Larsson keeps warm and cool in parity, a balance that lends the work a perceptual shimmer. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. #DED2BD at 32.6% of the palette: an overwhelming presence that pulls all other colours into its gravitational field. #D0936D functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (4.4%). Value range is moderate at 46 units - enough contrast for legibility, not so much as to fragment the tonal unity. In the context of Carl Larsson's full range of palettes, group 1 represents one movement in an ongoing chromatic dialogue.
