Palette Analysis

Raoul Dufy occupies the comfortable middle of the value scale, avoiding both extremes to hold the eye in a sustained middle grey. Raoul Dufy builds on cool foundations: the palette favours the blue-cyan-green arc. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. Only 4.5% is devoted to #9E332A, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. At 47 units across the value scale, the palette keeps contrast readable without letting it dominate. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively. This is palette 8 of Raoul Dufy's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
