Pieter Claesz sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. Cool tones set the register here - the blues and greens easily outweigh any warm accents. Saturation is measured and controlled, giving the palette presence without visual aggression. Only 7.2% is devoted to #7B6824, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. A value spread of 56 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively. Palette 5 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Pieter Claesz's complete body of work advances.
