Values in religious painting rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. Warmth dominates - the palette 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. #974229 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (5.1%). The full value range is 63 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form.
