Palette Analysis
James Tissot distributes its values across the middle register, creating harmony without high contrast. Blues and teal-greys govern the palette, lending it an aquatic or atmospheric quality. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. Only 9.8% is devoted to #E2D3A9, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. A value spread of 74 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light. High luminosity and cool temperature suggest the plein-air condition: unfiltered daylight and open sky. Palette 5 sits within the larger chromatic argument that James Tissot's complete body of work advances.
