Palette Analysis
nude painting (nu) occupies the comfortable middle of the value scale, avoiding both extremes to hold the eye in a sustained middle grey. Warm hues command this palette; it favours the reds, oranges, and yellows of firelight and earth. Chroma hovers near zero; colour declares itself through subtle shifts in hue rather than outright saturation. Only 3.7% is devoted to #C59646, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. At 55 units of value range, the palette has the tonal breadth to sustain complex spatial readings.
