Palette Analysis
Jean-Étienne Liotard distributes its values across the middle register, creating harmony without high contrast. The palette achieves thermal balance - reds and blues, ochres and greens, each holding the other in check. Chroma hovers near zero; colour declares itself through subtle shifts in hue rather than outright saturation. At 9.8%, #E0D9C7 carries the palette's sharpest chromatic charge: an accent that earns its place precisely because it is withheld. Spanning 53 units on the value axis, the palette achieves the balance between tonal flatness and fragmentation. In the context of Jean-Étienne Liotard's full range of palettes, group 2 represents one movement in an ongoing chromatic dialogue.
