Hendrick Cornelisz Vroom occupies the comfortable middle of the value scale, avoiding both extremes to hold the eye in a sustained middle grey. The dominant temperature is warm, with earth tones and fire-hues setting the emotional key. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. #A47E61 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (3.8%). At 69 units of value range, the palette has the tonal breadth to sustain complex spatial readings. In the context of Hendrick Cornelisz Vroom's full range of palettes, group 2 represents one movement in an ongoing chromatic dialogue.
