Mid-key values give Expressionism its characteristic quietness - nothing blazes, nothing disappears. The palette orchestrates warmth above all else - reds, ambers, and siennas take the lead. Chroma is held at a comfortable level - distinct colours, but no single hue is allowed to overwhelm. Only 6.5% is devoted to #984225, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. 52 units of value spread create a palette that is varied but unified - contrast in the service of harmony.
