Palette Analysis
Mid-key values give history painting its characteristic quietness - nothing blazes, nothing disappears. The palette tilts toward cool - blues and silver-greys carry the structural weight. Chroma hovers near zero; colour declares itself through subtle shifts in hue rather than outright saturation. The most saturated colour, #2F1F18, is reserved to 8.3% of the surface, where it acts as a focal punctuation. The full value range is 73 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively.
