Palette Analysis

Charles Hermans distributes its values across the middle register, creating harmony without high contrast. Cool tones set the register here - the blues and greens easily outweigh any warm accents. Chroma hovers near zero; colour declares itself through subtle shifts in hue rather than outright saturation. #1E1B12 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (3.4%). The full value range is 61 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively. This is palette 3 of Charles Hermans's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
