Palette Analysis

Social Realism keeps values measured and balanced, a hallmark of tonal restraint. Temperature is cool-dominant, with blue and green families claiming the largest areas. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. The chromatic peak belongs to #B6B17D, and at 19.5% it dominates, not decorates. At 67 units of value range, the palette has the tonal breadth to sustain complex spatial readings. The mid-to-high key, cool bias, and moderate chroma point to outdoor observation - sky and diffused daylight as the dominant light source.
