The value structure of Realism is mid-key: quiet, controlled, and cohesive. Temperature is balanced: the palette pits warm earth against cool sky without declaring a winner. Chroma hovers near zero; colour declares itself through subtle shifts in hue rather than outright saturation. The highest-chroma note - #DEC591 - appears at just 10.0%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. The value range spans 60 units across the palette, providing the full gamut from deep shadow to near-white and ensuring clear tonal hierarchy.
