Hans Baldung Palette 9

Palette Analysis

Hans Baldung is built on dark foundations, with values clustered toward shadow. Hans Baldung builds on cool foundations: the palette favours the blue-cyan-green arc. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. Hans Baldung gives 50.5% of the composition to a single #111214 - a decisive chromatic anchor. The highest-chroma note - #2C3A7C - appears at just 2.4%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. The full value range is 68 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. Together these qualities place Hans Baldung firmly in the tonal tradition - concerned with mood and atmosphere rather than chromatic display. This is palette 9 of Hans Baldung's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
