Palette Analysis

Richard Caton Woodville Sr. distributes its values across the middle register, creating harmony without high contrast. Richard Caton Woodville Sr. builds on cool foundations: the palette favours the blue-cyan-green arc. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. At 1.5%, #A18468 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 56 units of the value scale - a span that creates natural depth. High luminosity and cool temperature suggest the plein-air condition: unfiltered daylight and open sky. Palette 3 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Richard Caton Woodville Sr.'s complete body of work advances.
