Henri Laurens is strongly light-biased - shadow is suggested rather than declared. Warm hues command this palette; Henri Laurens 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, #D7BE8B, is reserved to 7.0% of the surface, where it acts as a focal punctuation. At 44 units across the value scale, the palette keeps contrast readable without letting it dominate. This is palette 2 of Henri Laurens's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
