Palette Analysis

David Cox distributes its values across the middle register, creating harmony without high contrast. The dominant temperature is warm, with earth tones and fire-hues setting the emotional key. The absence of saturated colour is itself an expressive choice: this is a palette of restraint and atmosphere. The most saturated colour, #9D613E, is reserved to 2.1% of the surface, where it acts as a focal punctuation. At 75 units of value range, the palette has the tonal breadth to sustain complex spatial readings. This is palette 10 of David Cox's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
