Frans Hals sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. Warm hues command this palette; Frans Hals favours the reds, oranges, and yellows of firelight and earth. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. The highest-chroma note - #D4B88E - appears at just 3.8%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. At 71 units of value range, the palette has the tonal breadth to sustain complex spatial readings. This is palette 5 of Frans Hals's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
