Mid-key values give Honore Daumier its characteristic quietness - nothing blazes, nothing disappears. Warm and cool are kept in productive tension, creating the kind of chromatic harmony that sustains the eye. Chroma hovers near zero; colour declares itself through subtle shifts in hue rather than outright saturation. #A28143 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (4.7%). From deepest dark to palest light, the palette traverses 67 units of the value scale - a span that creates natural depth. This is palette 7 of Honore Daumier's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
