Values in Cornelis de Vos rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. Temperature reads distinctly warm: the reds and earth tones from Cornelis de Vos carry the compositional weight. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. A single dominant - #181512 at 44.0% - sets the character of the whole composition. The highest-chroma note - #91673E - appears at just 3.6%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. The full value range is 79 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. Palette 1 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Cornelis de Vos's complete body of work advances.
