Palette Analysis

Values in Hans Rottenhammer I 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. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. A single dominant - #15110C at 26.8% - sets the character of the whole composition. #DBBD68 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (6.9%). The full value range is 82 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. In the context of Hans Rottenhammer I's full range of palettes, group 2 represents one movement in an ongoing chromatic dialogue.
