Palette Analysis

Values in Kurt Schwitters rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. Cool tones set the register here - the blues and greens easily outweigh any warm accents. Mid-saturation across the board: the palette has colour character without chromatic excess. The most saturated colour, #191CB1, is reserved to 1.7% of the surface, where it acts as a focal punctuation. At 54 units across the value scale, the palette keeps contrast readable without letting it dominate. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively. The palette is a signature: Kurt Schwitters's particular sense of value, warmth, and colour weight made legible.
