Vermillion Brilliant red-orange - the classic mercury sulfide pigment, vivid and warm.
Palette Analysis
Values in Facundus rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. Facundus orchestrates warmth above all else - reds, ambers, and siennas take the lead. Chroma is moderate: colours carry enough saturation to be read as colour, but the palette stops well short of garish intensity. #D99F16 at 5.6% is both the most chromatic and one of the largest colours in the palette - chroma as mass rather than as highlight. Spanning 46 units on the value axis, the palette achieves the balance between tonal flatness and fragmentation. In the context of Facundus's full range of palettes, group 5 represents one movement in an ongoing chromatic dialogue.
