Palette Analysis
Light floods John Leech; the palette keeps values pale and airy across its range. Temperature is cool-dominant, with blue and green families claiming the largest areas. Chroma is kept low across all colours, producing the soft, enveloping quality that characterises tonal painting. #703524 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (2.3%). 75 units of value range underpin the palette's structural clarity: the eye always knows where light falls. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively. This is palette 5 of John Leech's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
