Shadowed Bister

Bister Dark warm brown - a traditional ink and wash pigment made from wood soot.
Palette Analysis
Mid-key values give Stanley Spencer its characteristic quietness - nothing blazes, nothing disappears. Warm hues command this palette; Stanley Spencer favours the reds, oranges, and yellows of firelight and earth. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. Only 8.6% is devoted to #6A5029, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. Value range is moderate at 52 units - enough contrast for legibility, not so much as to fragment the tonal unity. Palette 5 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Stanley Spencer's complete body of work advances.
