Mid-key values give Mary Cassatt its characteristic quietness - nothing blazes, nothing disappears. Warmth dominates - the palette of Mary Cassatt leans heavily on the yellow-orange-red arc of the colour wheel. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. The most saturated colour, #BD874A, is reserved to 10.3% of the surface, where it acts as a focal punctuation. From deepest dark to palest light, the palette traverses 56 units of the value scale - a span that creates natural depth. This is palette 4 of Mary Cassatt's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
