Palette Analysis

Values in Jean Dupas rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. Temperature is cool-dominant, with blue and green families claiming the largest areas. Chroma is kept low across all colours, producing the soft, enveloping quality that characterises tonal painting. The most saturated colour, #4E4129, is reserved to 2.9% of the surface, where it acts as a focal punctuation. The full value range is 59 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively. Palette 3 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Jean Dupas's complete body of work advances.
