Palette Analysis
Values in Joseph Wright rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. Neither warm nor cool has the upper hand here; the equilibrium between the two generates the palette's visual energy. The absence of saturated colour is itself an expressive choice: this is a palette of restraint and atmosphere. #533D2F functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (10.2%). A value spread of 67 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light. Palette 5 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Joseph Wright's complete body of work advances.
