Palette Analysis

Values in Marsden Hartley rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. Temperature is balanced: the palette pits warm earth against cool sky without declaring a winner. All colours lean toward grey, building depth through value rather than colour punch. Only 7.9% is devoted to #A44F3B, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. The full value range is 63 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. This is palette 2 of Marsden Hartley's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
