Eleuterio Pagliano keeps values measured and balanced, a hallmark of tonal restraint. Neither warm nor cool has the upper hand here; the equilibrium between the two generates the palette's visual energy. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. #E2C9A4 delivers the chromatic peak at only 9.9% - a small shot of colour with outsized visual impact. The full value range is 68 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. This is palette 1 of Eleuterio Pagliano's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
