Palette Analysis
Henri Fantin-Latour occupies the comfortable middle of the value scale, avoiding both extremes to hold the eye in a sustained middle grey. Warm hues command this palette; Henri Fantin-Latour favours the reds, oranges, and yellows of firelight and earth. Chroma hovers near zero; colour declares itself through subtle shifts in hue rather than outright saturation. The most saturated colour, #B34D35, is reserved to 3.3% of the surface, where it acts as a focal punctuation. From deepest dark to palest light, the palette traverses 66 units of the value scale - a span that creates natural depth. This is palette 16 of Henri Fantin-Latour's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
