Lajos Tihanyi Palette 3
Shadowed Caramel
Shadowed Low-key - values weighted toward shadow, the palette of dim interiors and overcast skies.
Caramel Warm mid-brown - the color of cooked sugar, smooth and amber-toned.
Palette Analysis
Lajos Tihanyi occupies the comfortable middle of the value scale, avoiding both extremes to hold the eye in a sustained middle grey. Warm hues command this palette; Lajos Tihanyi favours the reds, oranges, and yellows of firelight and earth. A restrained, mid-chroma palette: every hue is present and legible, but nothing shouts. #8E3125 is not a small accent - at 8.5% it qualifies as a major presence and gives the palette its chromatic identity. The full value range is 71 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. This is palette 3 of Lajos Tihanyi's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
