Palette Analysis
The high-key values of Paul Gauguin give it an effulgent, almost bleached quality. Cool hues prevail: blues, greens, and greys anchor the palette's emotional temperature. Chroma is moderate: colours carry enough saturation to be read as colour, but the palette stops well short of garish intensity. Only 11.1% is devoted to #CFD492, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. The palette spans 48 value units: a measured range that delivers coherence over drama. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively. Palette 1 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Paul Gauguin's complete body of work advances.
