Palette Analysis
Maurice Quentin de La Tour keeps values measured and balanced, a hallmark of tonal restraint. 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. #7E5944 delivers the chromatic peak at only 11.5% - a small shot of colour with outsized visual impact. 58 units of value range underpin the palette's structural clarity: the eye always knows where light falls. The palette is recognisably Maurice Quentin de La Tour's own: particular in its temperature, chroma, and the economy of its brightest note.
