Palette Analysis
Values in Gustave Courbet rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. Heat pervades this palette; warm chromatic identities outweigh cool ones at almost every weight. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. The saturated accent, #765B45, registers at 8.6% - sparse enough to feel like a deliberate surprise. 65 units of value range underpin the palette's structural clarity: the eye always knows where light falls. This is palette 2 of Gustave Courbet's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
