Palette Analysis

Raphael distributes its values across the middle register, creating harmony without high contrast. Warmth dominates - the palette of Raphael leans heavily on the yellow-orange-red arc of the colour wheel. Chroma is kept low across all colours, producing the soft, enveloping quality that characterises tonal painting. Only 2.1% is devoted to #A34D37, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. 67 units of value range underpin the palette's structural clarity: the eye always knows where light falls. Raphael's palette 11 carries its own internal logic while remaining in conversation with the artist's broader colour intelligence.
