Palette Analysis

The high-key values of Hendrick Goltzius give it an effulgent, almost bleached quality. 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. #C0A087 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (9.3%). The value range of 43 units sits in the comfortable middle: enough depth, enough light, neither extreme. This is palette 1 of Hendrick Goltzius's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
