Values in Diogène Maillart tilt decisively toward white, giving the palette its luminous character. Temperature is cool-dominant, with blue and green families claiming the largest areas. Mid-range chroma keeps the palette grounded - colourful but not strident. The highest-chroma note - #3D2C0B - appears at just 4.5%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. The full value range is 75 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively. Palette 2 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Diogène Maillart's complete body of work advances.
