Palette Analysis

Melchior Broederlam distributes its values across the middle register, creating harmony without high contrast. Warm hues command this palette; Melchior Broederlam favours the reds, oranges, and yellows of firelight and earth. A restrained, mid-chroma palette: every hue is present and legible, but nothing shouts. The highest-chroma note - #C0765C - appears at just 5.5%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. The value range of 54 units sits in the comfortable middle: enough depth, enough light, neither extreme. This is palette 3 of Melchior Broederlam's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
