Palette Analysis

Values in Ferdinand Bellermann rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. Yellow, ochre, sienna: warm hues that Ferdinand Bellermann deploys as the palette's primary energy. Chroma is kept low across all colours, producing the soft, enveloping quality that characterises tonal painting. #CC7B4A functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (2.8%). The full value range is 62 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. This is palette 2 of Ferdinand Bellermann's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
