Mid-key values give Paolo Veneziano its characteristic quietness - nothing blazes, nothing disappears. Warm hues command this palette; Paolo Veneziano favours the reds, oranges, and yellows of firelight and earth. A restrained, mid-chroma palette: every hue is present and legible, but nothing shouts. #412E21 at 9.8% is both the most chromatic and one of the largest colours in the palette - chroma as mass rather than as highlight. 73 units of value range underpin the palette's structural clarity: the eye always knows where light falls. This is the light Paolo Veneziano preferred, made measurable.
