Edward Ladell sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. The dominant temperature is warm, with earth tones and fire-hues setting the emotional key. Chroma is moderate: colours carry enough saturation to be read as colour, but the palette stops well short of garish intensity. Only 7.4% is devoted to #AB6619, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. At 69 units of value range, the palette has the tonal breadth to sustain complex spatial readings. This is palette 2 of Edward Ladell's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
