Palette Analysis
Jan van der Meer II distributes its values across the middle register, creating harmony without high contrast. Temperature is balanced: the palette pits warm earth against cool sky without declaring a winner. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. The saturated accent, #633B20, registers at 5.5% - sparse enough to feel like a deliberate surprise. At 70 units of value range, the palette has the tonal breadth to sustain complex spatial readings. In the context of Jan van der Meer II's full range of palettes, group 4 represents one movement in an ongoing chromatic dialogue.
