The value structure of Mannerism is mid-key: quiet, controlled, and cohesive. The dominant temperature is warm, with earth tones and fire-hues setting the emotional key. Mid-range chroma keeps the palette grounded - colourful but not strident. #D29C58 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (5.3%). 44 units of value spread create a palette that is varied but unified - contrast in the service of harmony.
