Fernand Combes is high in key: pale, luminous, and filled with optical air. Temperature is cool-dominant, with blue and green families claiming the largest areas. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. The highest-chroma note - #C4BAA8 - appears at just 10.8%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. The palette spans 35 value units: a measured range that delivers coherence over drama. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively. This is palette 3 of Fernand Combes's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
