Palette Analysis
Melchior Broederlam sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. Temperature reads distinctly warm: the reds and earth tones from Melchior Broederlam carry the compositional weight. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. The most saturated colour, #C47858, is reserved to 7.9% of the surface, where it acts as a focal punctuation. A value spread of 66 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light. This is palette 1 of Melchior Broederlam's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
