Light floods Proto Renaissance; the palette keeps values pale and airy across its range. Warm and cool tones are held in careful balance - neither family dominates, creating tension and resolution simultaneously. Chroma is held at a comfortable level - distinct colours, but no single hue is allowed to overwhelm. #8F3A2A functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (4.4%). 69 units of value range underpin the palette's structural clarity: the eye always knows where light falls. The palette reads as an Impressionist one - light-biased, chromatically direct, and built on temperature contrast rather than value opposition.
