Palette Analysis
literary painting distributes its values across the middle register, creating harmony without high contrast. Temperature is cool-dominant, with blue and green families claiming the largest areas. All colours lean toward grey, building depth through value rather than colour punch. #AC6F4C functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (3.1%). The value range spans 79 units across the palette, providing the full gamut from deep shadow to near-white and ensuring clear tonal hierarchy. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively.
