Values in John Roddam Spencer Stanhope rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. The palette achieves thermal balance - reds and blues, ochres and greens, each holding the other in check. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. Only 2.9% is devoted to #C3AA4B, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. From deepest dark to palest light, the palette traverses 64 units of the value scale - a span that creates natural depth. John Roddam Spencer Stanhope's palette 3 carries its own internal logic while remaining in conversation with the artist's broader colour intelligence.
