Palette Analysis
Dirk Bouts distributes its values across the middle register, creating harmony without high contrast. Heat pervades this palette; warm chromatic identities outweigh cool ones at almost every weight. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. #BF9C69 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (3.8%). The full value range is 74 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. Dirk Bouts's palette 3 carries its own internal logic while remaining in conversation with the artist's broader colour intelligence.
