Values in Expressionism tilt decisively toward white, giving the palette its luminous character. Built on cool foundations: the palette favours the blue-cyan-green arc. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. #E4DBC5 at 29.9% of the palette: an overwhelming presence that pulls all other colours into its gravitational field. The saturated accent, #CAAC73, registers at 4.3% - sparse enough to feel like a deliberate surprise. A value spread of 64 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light. High luminosity and cool temperature suggest the plein-air condition: unfiltered daylight and open sky.
