Palette Analysis

Values in Louis Cheron rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. Warm hues command this palette; Louis Cheron favours the reds, oranges, and yellows of firelight and earth. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. A single dominant - #2B131A at 27.0% - sets the character of the whole composition. The saturated accent, #CD9154, registers at 3.6% - sparse enough to feel like a deliberate surprise. At 65 units of value range, the palette has the tonal breadth to sustain complex spatial readings. Palette 3 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Louis Cheron's complete body of work advances.
