Palette Analysis
Katsushika Hokusai sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. The palette achieves thermal balance - reds and blues, ochres and greens, each holding the other in check. Chroma is kept low across all colours, producing the soft, enveloping quality that characterises tonal painting. The highest-chroma note - #614537 - appears at just 5.1%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. At 53 units across the value scale, the palette keeps contrast readable without letting it dominate. Palette 14 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Katsushika Hokusai's complete body of work advances.
