Palette Analysis
Values in Jean II Restout rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. Heat pervades this palette; warm chromatic identities outweigh cool ones at almost every weight. Chroma is kept low across all colours, producing the soft, enveloping quality that characterises tonal painting. A single dominant - #3B3028 at 25.3% - sets the character of the whole composition. The highest-chroma note - #93663C - appears at just 3.6%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. The full value range is 55 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. This is palette 5 of Jean II Restout's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
