Palette Analysis
The high-key values of Edward Hicks give it an effulgent, almost bleached quality. The palette achieves thermal balance - reds and blues, ochres and greens, each holding the other in check. Chroma is kept low across all colours, producing the soft, enveloping quality that characterises tonal painting. Only 7.0% is devoted to #623723, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. At 68 units of value range, the palette has the tonal breadth to sustain complex spatial readings. This is palette 1 of Edward Hicks's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
