Palette Analysis
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. Chroma is kept low across all colours, producing the soft, enveloping quality that characterises tonal painting. Only 4.7% is devoted to #B5A754, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. A value spread of 62 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light. High luminosity and cool temperature suggest the plein-air condition: unfiltered daylight and open sky.
