Palette Analysis
Charles Willson Peale sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. The dominant temperature is warm, with earth tones and fire-hues setting the emotional key. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. The highest-chroma note - #9F602C - appears at just 5.3%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. At 70 units of value range, the palette has the tonal breadth to sustain complex spatial readings. This is palette 6 of Charles Willson Peale's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
