Palette Analysis

Harald Sohlberg is strongly light-biased - shadow is suggested rather than declared. Cool hues prevail: blues, greens, and greys anchor the palette's emotional temperature. Chroma hovers near zero; colour declares itself through subtle shifts in hue rather than outright saturation. Only 3.6% is devoted to #B0843B, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. At 52 units across the value scale, the palette keeps contrast readable without letting it dominate. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively. Palette 1 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Harald Sohlberg's complete body of work advances.
