Bister Dark warm brown - a traditional ink and wash pigment made from wood soot.
Palette Analysis
Values in Francesco Podesti rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. Cool hues prevail: blues, greens, and greys anchor the palette's emotional temperature. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. #654728 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (7.7%). From deepest dark to palest light, the palette traverses 55 units of the value scale - a span that creates natural depth. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively. This is palette 3 of Francesco Podesti's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
