Values in Istvan Nagy rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. Istvan Nagy tilts toward cool - blues and silver-greys carry the structural weight. Saturation is measured and controlled, giving the palette presence without visual aggression. The most saturated colour, #978F36, is reserved to 8.0% of the surface, where it acts as a focal punctuation. Spanning 53 units on the value axis, the palette achieves the balance between tonal flatness and fragmentation. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively. Palette 1 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Istvan Nagy's complete body of work advances.
