Samuel Peploe sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. Warmth dominates - the palette of Samuel Peploe leans heavily on the yellow-orange-red arc of the colour wheel. Chroma hovers near zero; colour declares itself through subtle shifts in hue rather than outright saturation. #3E3422 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (11.1%). From deepest dark to palest light, the palette traverses 71 units of the value scale - a span that creates natural depth. This is palette 17 of Samuel Peploe's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
