history painting keeps values measured and balanced, a hallmark of tonal restraint. Heat pervades this palette; warm chromatic identities outweigh cool ones at almost every weight. Mid-saturation across the board: the palette has colour character without chromatic excess. Only 7.6% is devoted to #3A1309, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. 57 units of value range underpin the palette's structural clarity: the eye always knows where light falls.
