religious painting keeps values measured and balanced, a hallmark of tonal restraint. Warm hues command this palette; it favours the reds, oranges, and yellows of firelight and earth. All colours lean toward grey, building depth through value rather than colour punch. #BC7D42 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (8.0%). The value range spans 58 units across the palette, providing the full gamut from deep shadow to near-white and ensuring clear tonal hierarchy.
