Mid-key values give Michel Dorigny its characteristic quietness - nothing blazes, nothing disappears. Temperature is balanced: the palette pits warm earth against cool sky without declaring a winner. All colours lean toward grey, building depth through value rather than colour punch. #99753D functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (6.7%). Value range is moderate at 49 units - enough contrast for legibility, not so much as to fragment the tonal unity. This is palette 2 of Michel Dorigny's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
