Palette Analysis
Edwin Lord Weeks distributes its values across the middle register, creating harmony without high contrast. The palette achieves thermal balance - reds and blues, ochres and greens, each holding the other in check. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. Only 9.5% is devoted to #E9E4DC, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. A value spread of 65 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light. Edwin Lord Weeks's palette 4 carries its own internal logic while remaining in conversation with the artist's broader colour intelligence.
