Raphael Palette 13

Palette Analysis

Raphael sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. Warmth dominates - the palette of Raphael leans heavily on the yellow-orange-red arc of the colour wheel. Chroma hovers near zero; colour declares itself through subtle shifts in hue rather than outright saturation. At 4.0%, #9D4F38 carries the palette's sharpest chromatic charge: an accent that earns its place precisely because it is withheld. From deepest dark to palest light, the palette traverses 67 units of the value scale - a span that creates natural depth. This is palette 13 of Raphael's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
