Light floods Claude Monet; the palette keeps values pale and airy across its range. Warm and cool tones are held in careful balance - neither family dominates, creating tension and resolution simultaneously. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. #CBAC7C functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (9.7%). Spanning 40 units on the value axis, the palette achieves the balance between tonal flatness and fragmentation. Palette 13 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Claude Monet's complete body of work advances.
