Palette Analysis

Values in Carl Larsson tilt decisively toward white, giving the palette its luminous character. Temperature is cool-dominant, with blue and green families claiming the largest areas. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. At 29.6%, #DECEB7 functions less as a colour accent and more as a complete atmospheric environment. #8D391E functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (4.0%). At 54 units across the value scale, the palette keeps contrast readable without letting it dominate. The mid-to-high key, cool bias, and moderate chroma point to outdoor observation - sky and diffused daylight as the dominant light source. In the context of Carl Larsson's full range of palettes, group 6 represents one movement in an ongoing chromatic dialogue.
