Palette Analysis

Values in Christopher Wood rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. Temperature is cool-dominant, with blue and green families claiming the largest areas. The absence of saturated colour is itself an expressive choice: this is a palette of restraint and atmosphere. The highest-chroma note - #8F7757 - appears at just 5.1%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. Value range is moderate at 47 units - enough contrast for legibility, not so much as to fragment the tonal unity. The mid-to-high key, cool bias, and moderate chroma point to outdoor observation - sky and diffused daylight as the dominant light source. This is palette 6 of Christopher Wood's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
