Mid-key values give Salomon Koninck its characteristic quietness - nothing blazes, nothing disappears. Temperature is balanced: the palette pits warm earth against cool sky without declaring a winner. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. #19181A claims 34.7% of the surface, functioning as the work's tonal foundation. The most saturated colour, #7E6340, is reserved to 4.8% of the surface, where it acts as a focal punctuation. From deepest dark to palest light, the palette traverses 57 units of the value scale - a span that creates natural depth. Palette 2 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Salomon Koninck's complete body of work advances.
