Paul Jacoulet Palette 9
Muted Vellum
Muted Deliberately desaturated - chroma pulled toward gray, the restraint of tonal painting.
Vellum Smooth pale tan - the color of prepared calf-skin vellum, warmer than parchment.
Palette Analysis
Paul Jacoulet distributes its values across the middle register, creating harmony without high contrast. Temperature is cool-dominant, with blue and green families claiming the largest areas. All colours lean toward grey, building depth through value rather than colour punch. The highest-chroma note - #D8AC79 - appears at just 7.7%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. At 78 units of value range, the palette has the tonal breadth to sustain complex spatial readings. The mid-to-high key, cool bias, and moderate chroma point to outdoor observation - sky and diffused daylight as the dominant light source. This is palette 9 of Paul Jacoulet's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
