Mid-key values give Kazimir Malevich its characteristic quietness - nothing blazes, nothing disappears. Warmth dominates - the palette of Kazimir Malevich leans heavily on the yellow-orange-red arc of the colour wheel. A restrained, mid-chroma palette: every hue is present and legible, but nothing shouts. #C03E28 at 28.6% is both the most chromatic and one of the largest colours in the palette - chroma as mass rather than as highlight. From deepest dark to palest light, the palette traverses 76 units of the value scale - a span that creates natural depth. Palette 9 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Kazimir Malevich's complete body of work advances.
