Raphael Palette 9
Muted Tawny
Muted Deliberately desaturated - chroma pulled toward gray, the restraint of tonal painting.
Tawny Warm orange-brown - a traditional term for the color of tanned leather or lion fur.
Palette Analysis
The value structure of Raphael is mid-key: quiet, controlled, and cohesive. The dominant temperature is warm, with earth tones and fire-hues setting the emotional key. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. #773827 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (6.2%). A value spread of 68 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light. This is palette 9 of Raphael's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
