Pierre Puvis de Chavannes Palette 10
Shadowed Rust
Shadowed Low-key - values weighted toward shadow, the palette of dim interiors and overcast skies.
Rust Oxidized red-brown - the color of iron corrosion, warm and earthy-red.
Palette Analysis
Pierre Puvis de Chavannes occupies the comfortable middle of the value scale, avoiding both extremes to hold the eye in a sustained middle grey. Heat pervades this palette; warm chromatic identities outweigh cool ones at almost every weight. Chroma is held at a comfortable level - distinct colours, but no single hue is allowed to overwhelm. Only 3.1% is devoted to #C55505, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. From deepest dark to palest light, the palette traverses 63 units of the value scale - a span that creates natural depth. This is palette 10 of Pierre Puvis de Chavannes's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
