Palette Analysis
Josef Edelbacher sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. Neither warm nor cool has the upper hand here; the equilibrium between the two generates the palette's visual energy. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. Only 6.2% is devoted to #8B7043, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. At 60 units of value range, the palette has the tonal breadth to sustain complex spatial readings. This is palette 1 of Josef Edelbacher's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
