Bister Dark warm brown - a traditional ink and wash pigment made from wood soot.
Palette Analysis
Guercino sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. Yellow, ochre, sienna: warm hues that Guercino deploys as the palette's primary energy. Saturation is deliberately withheld - the beauty here lies in the near-monochromatic gradations rather than colour difference. The saturated accent, #2C487F, registers at 2.1% - sparse enough to feel like a deliberate surprise. The value range spans 65 units across the palette, providing the full gamut from deep shadow to near-white and ensuring clear tonal hierarchy. In the context of Guercino's full range of palettes, group 7 represents one movement in an ongoing chromatic dialogue.
