Palette Analysis
Neoclassicism occupies the comfortable middle of the value scale, avoiding both extremes to hold the eye in a sustained middle grey. Cool tones set the register here - the blues and greens easily outweigh any warm accents. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. At 5.9%, #866635 carries the palette's sharpest chromatic charge: an accent that earns its place precisely because it is withheld. Spanning 52 units on the value axis, the palette achieves the balance between tonal flatness and fragmentation. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively.
