Duccio sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. The dominant temperature is warm, with earth tones and fire-hues setting the emotional key. Chroma is held at a comfortable level - distinct colours, but no single hue is allowed to overwhelm. #89AFCA functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (4.9%). The full value range is 63 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. Palette 9 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Duccio's complete body of work advances.
