Mid-key values give Romanticism its characteristic quietness - nothing blazes, nothing disappears. Temperature is cool-dominant, with blue and green families claiming the largest areas. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. #7A5133 delivers the chromatic peak at only 5.4% - a small shot of colour with outsized visual impact. A value spread of 56 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light. High luminosity and cool temperature suggest the plein-air condition: unfiltered daylight and open sky.
