Palette Analysis
Values in Jean-Honore Fragonard rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. Blues and teal-greys govern the palette, lending it an aquatic or atmospheric quality. Chroma is kept low across all colours, producing the soft, enveloping quality that characterises tonal painting. The most saturated colour, #79592F, is reserved to 6.3% of the surface, where it acts as a focal punctuation. 47 units of value spread create a palette that is varied but unified - contrast in the service of harmony. High luminosity and cool temperature suggest the plein-air condition: unfiltered daylight and open sky. This is palette 4 of Jean-Honore Fragonard's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
