Palette Analysis

Values in Karl Bodmer tilt decisively toward white, giving the palette its luminous character. Karl Bodmer builds on cool foundations: the palette favours the blue-cyan-green arc. Chroma is kept low across all colours, producing the soft, enveloping quality that characterises tonal painting. The highest-chroma note - #513822 - appears at just 6.5%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. At 56 units of value range, the palette has the tonal breadth to sustain complex spatial readings. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively. This is palette 2 of Karl Bodmer's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
