Simon de Vlieger is strongly light-biased - shadow is suggested rather than declared. Simon de Vlieger builds on cool foundations: the palette favours the blue-cyan-green arc. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. Only 9.0% is devoted to #C8BE9C, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. The value range spans 65 units across the palette, providing the full gamut from deep shadow to near-white and ensuring clear tonal hierarchy. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively. Simon de Vlieger's palette 4 carries its own internal logic while remaining in conversation with the artist's broader colour intelligence.
