Palette Analysis
The value structure of Eastman Johnson is mid-key: quiet, controlled, and cohesive. Yellow, ochre, sienna: warm hues that Eastman Johnson deploys as the palette's primary energy. Saturation is deliberately withheld - the beauty here lies in the near-monochromatic gradations rather than colour difference. The highest-chroma note - #B47234 - appears at just 1.7%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. A value spread of 70 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light. Eastman Johnson's palette 11 carries its own internal logic while remaining in conversation with the artist's broader colour intelligence.
