Palette Analysis

Charles Jacque occupies the comfortable middle of the value scale, avoiding both extremes to hold the eye in a sustained middle grey. Warm hues command this palette; Charles Jacque favours the reds, oranges, and yellows of firelight and earth. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. #CCBAA3 delivers the chromatic peak at only 5.8% - a small shot of colour with outsized visual impact. A value spread of 65 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light. Palette 3 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Charles Jacque's complete body of work advances.
