Mythological Painting Palette 22

Vermillion Brilliant red-orange - the classic mercury sulfide pigment, vivid and warm.
Palette Analysis
mythological painting keeps values measured and balanced, a hallmark of tonal restraint. The dominant temperature is warm, with earth tones and fire-hues setting the emotional key. Chroma is held at a comfortable level - distinct colours, but no single hue is allowed to overwhelm. #C55E26 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (8.3%). A value spread of 55 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light.
