Edvard Munch occupies the comfortable middle of the value scale, avoiding both extremes to hold the eye in a sustained middle grey. A distinctly cool atmosphere runs through this palette: sky, water, and mist given colour form. Chroma hovers near zero; colour declares itself through subtle shifts in hue rather than outright saturation. The highest-chroma note - #824E3E - appears at just 4.6%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. 61 units of value range underpin the palette's structural clarity: the eye always knows where light falls. High luminosity and cool temperature suggest the plein-air condition: unfiltered daylight and open sky. Palette 5 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Edvard Munch's complete body of work advances.
