The value structure of George Clausen is mid-key: quiet, controlled, and cohesive. Heat pervades this palette; warm chromatic identities outweigh cool ones at almost every weight. Chroma is kept low across all colours, producing the soft, enveloping quality that characterises tonal painting. The most saturated colour, #B98F60, is reserved to 5.7% of the surface, where it acts as a focal punctuation. The value range of 52 units sits in the comfortable middle: enough depth, enough light, neither extreme. Palette 3 sits within the larger chromatic argument that George Clausen's complete body of work advances.
