Palette Analysis
Mid-key values give Max Nonnenbruch its characteristic quietness - nothing blazes, nothing disappears. Max Nonnenbruch builds on cool foundations: the palette favours the blue-cyan-green arc. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. #71704B functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (9.5%). 49 units of value spread create a palette that is varied but unified - contrast in the service of harmony. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively. This is palette 4 of Max Nonnenbruch's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
