Palette Analysis

Mid-key values give Charles XV of Sweden its characteristic quietness - nothing blazes, nothing disappears. Blues and teal-greys govern the palette, lending it an aquatic or atmospheric quality. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. #D1CBB6 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (7.7%). The value range spans 64 units across the palette, providing the full gamut from deep shadow to near-white and ensuring clear tonal hierarchy. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively. This is palette 3 of Charles XV of Sweden's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
