George Henry occupies the comfortable middle of the value scale, avoiding both extremes to hold the eye in a sustained middle grey. The dominant temperature is warm, with earth tones and fire-hues setting the emotional key. Chroma is kept low across all colours, producing the soft, enveloping quality that characterises tonal painting. #AF885B functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (3.4%). From deepest dark to palest light, the palette traverses 57 units of the value scale - a span that creates natural depth. Palette 5 sits within the larger chromatic argument that George Henry's complete body of work advances.
