Palette Analysis
Mid-key values give Rococo its characteristic quietness - nothing blazes, nothing disappears. Cool tones set the register here - the blues and greens easily outweigh any warm accents. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. The highest-chroma note - #A17D59 - appears at just 3.9%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. A value spread of 62 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively.
