Palette Analysis

history painting keeps values measured and balanced, a hallmark of tonal restraint. The dominant temperature is warm, with earth tones and fire-hues setting the emotional key. Chroma is kept low across all colours, producing the soft, enveloping quality that characterises tonal painting. #C7AE81 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (10.9%). A value spread of 65 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light.
