Palette Analysis

Frederick Sandys occupies the comfortable middle of the value scale, avoiding both extremes to hold the eye in a sustained middle grey. Yellow, ochre, sienna: warm hues that Frederick Sandys deploys as the palette's primary energy. Chroma is moderate: colours carry enough saturation to be read as colour, but the palette stops well short of garish intensity. The most saturated colour, #7A3025, covers 19.6% of the surface: too much to call an accent, too strong to ignore. Value range is moderate at 54 units - enough contrast for legibility, not so much as to fragment the tonal unity. Palette 6 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Frederick Sandys's complete body of work advances.
