Paul Delaroche occupies the comfortable middle of the value scale, avoiding both extremes to hold the eye in a sustained middle grey. Paul Delaroche orchestrates warmth above all else - reds, ambers, and siennas take the lead. A restrained, mid-chroma palette: every hue is present and legible, but nothing shouts. #CB9B3B delivers the chromatic peak at only 5.0% - a small shot of colour with outsized visual impact. The full value range is 55 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. Palette 2 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Paul Delaroche's complete body of work advances.
