Mannerism occupies the comfortable middle of the value scale, avoiding both extremes to hold the eye in a sustained middle grey. Heat pervades this palette; warm chromatic identities outweigh cool ones at almost every weight. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. #49241E delivers the chromatic peak at only 8.3% - a small shot of colour with outsized visual impact. At 65 units of value range, the palette has the tonal breadth to sustain complex spatial readings.
