Values in Max Klinger rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. Max Klinger builds on cool foundations: the palette favours the blue-cyan-green arc. All colours lean toward grey, building depth through value rather than colour punch. The saturated accent, #CD8F4E, registers at 3.8% - sparse enough to feel like a deliberate surprise. From deepest dark to palest light, the palette traverses 55 units of the value scale - a span that creates natural depth. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively. Max Klinger arrived at this balance through long practice; the palette carries the weight of that experience.
