Palette Analysis

Charles-Philippe Lariviere keeps values measured and balanced, a hallmark of tonal restraint. Blues and teal-greys govern the palette, lending it an aquatic or atmospheric quality. All colours lean toward grey, building depth through value rather than colour punch. #8F692E delivers the chromatic peak at only 6.9% - a small shot of colour with outsized visual impact. A value spread of 56 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light. High luminosity and cool temperature suggest the plein-air condition: unfiltered daylight and open sky. Palette 3 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Charles-Philippe Lariviere's complete body of work advances.
