Palette Analysis
The value structure of Jean Lecomte du Nouÿ is mid-key: quiet, controlled, and cohesive. Jean Lecomte du Nouÿ orchestrates warmth above all else - reds, ambers, and siennas take the lead. Saturation is deliberately withheld - the beauty here lies in the near-monochromatic gradations rather than colour difference. #9D7446 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (5.6%). 61 units of value range underpin the palette's structural clarity: the eye always knows where light falls. In the context of Jean Lecomte du Nouÿ's full range of palettes, group 5 represents one movement in an ongoing chromatic dialogue.
