Palette Analysis

Mid-key values give Post-Impressionism its characteristic quietness - nothing blazes, nothing disappears. Warm hues command this palette; it favours the reds, oranges, and yellows of firelight and earth. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. #D2AE74 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (4.0%). At 57 units of value range, the palette has the tonal breadth to sustain complex spatial readings.
