literary painting is high in key: pale, luminous, and filled with optical air. Built on cool foundations: the palette favours the blue-cyan-green arc. Chroma is moderate: colours carry enough saturation to be read as colour, but the palette stops well short of garish intensity. #E1BC7F at 33.2% of the palette: an overwhelming presence that pulls all other colours into its gravitational field. The highest-chroma note - #8F7946 - appears at just 4.1%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. At 67 units of value range, the palette has the tonal breadth to sustain complex spatial readings. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively.
