Palette Analysis
The value structure of Edgar Degas is mid-key: quiet, controlled, and cohesive. 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. #CBAC70 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (6.1%). A value spread of 56 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light. This is palette 18 of Edgar Degas's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
