Jean-Marc Nattier occupies the comfortable middle of the value scale, avoiding both extremes to hold the eye in a sustained middle grey. The dominant temperature is warm, with earth tones and fire-hues setting the emotional key. Chroma is kept low across all colours, producing the soft, enveloping quality that characterises tonal painting. #E0CAAE delivers the chromatic peak at only 5.1% - a small shot of colour with outsized visual impact. The value range spans 60 units across the palette, providing the full gamut from deep shadow to near-white and ensuring clear tonal hierarchy. Palette 3 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Jean-Marc Nattier's complete body of work advances.
