Palette Analysis

Edward E. Simmons sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. Heat pervades this palette; warm chromatic identities outweigh cool ones at almost every weight. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. #B89363 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (10.0%). The value range spans 66 units across the palette, providing the full gamut from deep shadow to near-white and ensuring clear tonal hierarchy. The palette is recognisably Edward E. Simmons's own: particular in its temperature, chroma, and the economy of its brightest note.
