Palette Analysis

Values in Ernst Meyer rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. Ernst Meyer orchestrates warmth above all else - reds, ambers, and siennas take the lead. Chroma is kept low across all colours, producing the soft, enveloping quality that characterises tonal painting. #432539 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (13.3%). The full value range is 65 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. In the context of Ernst Meyer's full range of palettes, group 7 represents one movement in an ongoing chromatic dialogue.
