Neo-Impressionism occupies the comfortable middle of the value scale, avoiding both extremes to hold the eye in a sustained middle grey. Built on cool foundations: the palette favours the blue-cyan-green arc. The absence of saturated colour is itself an expressive choice: this is a palette of restraint and atmosphere. The most saturated colour, #E6E3D8, is reserved to 8.3% of the surface, where it acts as a focal punctuation. The full value range is 63 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. High luminosity and cool temperature suggest the plein-air condition: unfiltered daylight and open sky.
