Palette Analysis

Mid-key values give Harald Jerichau its characteristic quietness - nothing blazes, nothing disappears. A distinctly cool atmosphere runs through this palette: sky, water, and mist given colour form. The absence of saturated colour is itself an expressive choice: this is a palette of restraint and atmosphere. The most saturated colour, #936E42, is reserved to 7.6% of the surface, where it acts as a focal punctuation. At 56 units of value range, the palette has the tonal breadth to sustain complex spatial readings. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively. This is palette 1 of Harald Jerichau's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
