Red (#FE2712) is a mid-tone warm shade that appears across 3 master palettes in our corpus, most prominently in the work of Sonia Delaunay, and Thomas Theodor Heine and the Orphism (Simultanism) tradition. Master painters paired it most often with Persian blue (#1C39BB), Royal blue (#002366), and Cornsilk (#FFF8DC). The combination forms a sun-bleached, daylight chord, built on a split-complementary spread, plays the source warmth against cooler companions for visible contrast, with the pair colors held at a similar value to the source.
