Palette Analysis

Romanticism distributes its values across the middle register, creating harmony without high contrast. Warm and cool are kept in productive tension, creating the kind of chromatic harmony that sustains the eye. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. The saturated accent, #B98F5F, registers at 2.8% - sparse enough to feel like a deliberate surprise. At 54 units across the value scale, the palette keeps contrast readable without letting it dominate.
