The value structure of Edward Henry Holder is mid-key: quiet, controlled, and cohesive. Warm and cool are kept in productive tension, creating the kind of chromatic harmony that sustains the eye. The absence of saturated colour is itself an expressive choice: this is a palette of restraint and atmosphere. The highest-chroma note - #654128 - appears at just 7.6%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. The full value range is 76 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. This is palette 1 of Edward Henry Holder's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
