Palette Analysis
Values in Léon Cogniet rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. Cool hues prevail: blues, greens, and greys anchor the palette's emotional temperature. The absence of saturated colour is itself an expressive choice: this is a palette of restraint and atmosphere. #6D593D functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (10.2%). A value spread of 57 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively. Palette 2 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Léon Cogniet's complete body of work advances.
