Palette Analysis

Edmund Blair Leighton distributes its values across the middle register, creating harmony without high contrast. Edmund Blair Leighton builds on cool foundations: the palette favours the blue-cyan-green arc. Mid-range chroma keeps the palette grounded - colourful but not strident. 28.9% of the palette belongs to #080904, a concentration that makes it the unmistakable visual centre. Only 7.7% is devoted to #6A5716, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. At 70 units of value range, the palette has the tonal breadth to sustain complex spatial readings. High luminosity and cool temperature suggest the plein-air condition: unfiltered daylight and open sky. Palette 7 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Edmund Blair Leighton's complete body of work advances.
