Palette Analysis

Raphael keeps values measured and balanced, a hallmark of tonal restraint. Yellow, ochre, sienna: warm hues that Raphael deploys as the palette's primary energy. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. At 8.8%, #A56D4C carries the palette's sharpest chromatic charge: an accent that earns its place precisely because it is withheld. The full value range is 67 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. This is palette 12 of Raphael's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
