Gamboge Deep golden yellow - a traditional warm pigment, rich amber-gold.
Palette Analysis
Fra Angelico keeps values measured and balanced, a hallmark of tonal restraint. Warm hues command this palette; Fra Angelico favours the reds, oranges, and yellows of firelight and earth. Chroma is kept low across all colours, producing the soft, enveloping quality that characterises tonal painting. The highest-chroma note - #B77F54 - appears at just 11.2%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. From deepest dark to palest light, the palette traverses 59 units of the value scale - a span that creates natural depth. This is palette 3 of Fra Angelico's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
