Northern Renaissance distributes its values across the middle register, creating harmony without high contrast. Neither warm nor cool has the upper hand here; the equilibrium between the two generates the palette's visual energy. All colours lean toward grey, building depth through value rather than colour punch. #222020 claims 30.4% of the surface, functioning as the work's tonal foundation. The saturated accent, #C6A67D, registers at 5.7% - sparse enough to feel like a deliberate surprise. A value spread of 56 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light.
