Mid-key values give Stefan Lochner its characteristic quietness - nothing blazes, nothing disappears. Stefan Lochner builds on cool foundations: the palette favours the blue-cyan-green arc. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. #D5C8AE delivers the chromatic peak at only 12.7% - a small shot of colour with outsized visual impact. From deepest dark to palest light, the palette traverses 56 units of the value scale - a span that creates natural depth. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively. These proportions encode Stefan Lochner's instinctive sense of how much of each quality the eye can hold.
