Palette Analysis
Jean Dupas sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. Temperature is balanced: the palette pits warm earth against cool sky without declaring a winner. The absence of saturated colour is itself an expressive choice: this is a palette of restraint and atmosphere. #9B7547 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (10.6%). Spanning 40 units on the value axis, the palette achieves the balance between tonal flatness and fragmentation. In the context of Jean Dupas's full range of palettes, group 2 represents one movement in an ongoing chromatic dialogue.
