Palette Analysis

High Renaissance occupies the comfortable middle of the value scale, avoiding both extremes to hold the eye in a sustained middle grey. Yellow, ochre, sienna: warm hues deployed as the palette's primary energy. The absence of saturated colour is itself an expressive choice: this is a palette of restraint and atmosphere. The most saturated colour, #A14937, is reserved to 3.6% of the surface, where it acts as a focal punctuation. A value spread of 57 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light.
