Mid-key values give Moscow school of icon painting its characteristic quietness - nothing blazes, nothing disappears. Temperature is cool-dominant, with blue and green families claiming the largest areas. A restrained, mid-chroma palette: every hue is present and legible, but nothing shouts. Only 10.8% is devoted to #8D663A, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. At 54 units across the value scale, the palette keeps contrast readable without letting it dominate. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively.
