Shadow (#8A795D) is a mid-tone warm shade that appears across 20+ master palettes in our corpus, most prominently in the work of Károly Lotz, Armando Spadini, and Willi Baumeister and the Realism tradition. Master painters paired it most often with Raisin black (#242124), Bistre (#3D2B1F), and Bole (#79443B).
