Palette Analysis

Matthias Grünewald distributes its values across the middle register, creating harmony without high contrast. Heat pervades this palette; warm chromatic identities outweigh cool ones at almost every weight. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. #DDB38C functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (2.5%). The value range spans 62 units across the palette, providing the full gamut from deep shadow to near-white and ensuring clear tonal hierarchy. This is palette 4 of Matthias Grünewald's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
