Cornelis Troost Palette 1
Muted Tawny
Muted Deliberately desaturated - chroma pulled toward gray, the restraint of tonal painting.
Tawny Warm orange-brown - a traditional term for the color of tanned leather or lion fur.
Palette Analysis
Mid-key values give Cornelis Troost its characteristic quietness - nothing blazes, nothing disappears. Heat pervades this palette; warm chromatic identities outweigh cool ones at almost every weight. Chroma is kept low across all colours, producing the soft, enveloping quality that characterises tonal painting. The most saturated colour, #C9986B, is reserved to 2.4% of the surface, where it acts as a focal punctuation. At 69 units of value range, the palette has the tonal breadth to sustain complex spatial readings. This is palette 1 of Cornelis Troost's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
