Palette Analysis

Values in Hans Sterbik tilt decisively toward white, giving the palette its luminous character. Yellow, ochre, sienna: warm hues that Hans Sterbik deploys as the palette's primary energy. All colours lean toward grey, building depth through value rather than colour punch. #E7D3BC delivers the chromatic peak at only 7.0% - a small shot of colour with outsized visual impact. The value range spans 77 units across the palette, providing the full gamut from deep shadow to near-white and ensuring clear tonal hierarchy. Palette 1 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Hans Sterbik's complete body of work advances.
