Values in Diego Velazquez rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. Neither warm nor cool has the upper hand here; the equilibrium between the two generates the palette's visual energy. All colours lean toward grey, building depth through value rather than colour punch. The highest-chroma note - #AD4E30 - appears at just 2.4%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. A value spread of 58 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light. Diego Velazquez's palette 9 carries its own internal logic while remaining in conversation with the artist's broader colour intelligence.
