Georges Lacombe sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. Cool tones set the register here - the blues and greens easily outweigh any warm accents. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. The highest-chroma note - #A78B53 - appears at just 8.9%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. 52 units of value spread create a palette that is varied but unified - contrast in the service of harmony. High luminosity and cool temperature suggest the plein-air condition: unfiltered daylight and open sky. Palette 5 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Georges Lacombe's complete body of work advances.
