Palette Analysis

Values in Edgar Degas rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. Warm hues command this palette; Edgar Degas favours the reds, oranges, and yellows of firelight and earth. Chroma is moderate: colours carry enough saturation to be read as colour, but the palette stops well short of garish intensity. Only 6.5% is devoted to #AD7123, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. Spanning 50 units on the value axis, the palette achieves the balance between tonal flatness and fragmentation. Palette 7 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Edgar Degas's complete body of work advances.
