Ferdinand Bol sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. Yellow, ochre, sienna: warm hues that Ferdinand Bol deploys as the palette's primary energy. All colours lean toward grey, building depth through value rather than colour punch. The saturated accent, #967655, registers at 7.0% - sparse enough to feel like a deliberate surprise. At 51 units across the value scale, the palette keeps contrast readable without letting it dominate. Palette 1 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Ferdinand Bol's complete body of work advances.
