Palette Analysis
Edgar Degas occupies the comfortable middle of the value scale, avoiding both extremes to hold the eye in a sustained middle grey. Warmth dominates - the palette of Edgar Degas leans heavily on the yellow-orange-red arc of the colour wheel. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. The most saturated colour, #814538, is reserved to 7.4% of the surface, where it acts as a focal punctuation. The full value range is 64 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. Edgar Degas's palette 12 carries its own internal logic while remaining in conversation with the artist's broader colour intelligence.
