Palette Analysis

still life keeps values measured and balanced, a hallmark of tonal restraint. Temperature is cool-dominant, with blue and green families claiming the largest areas. Chroma hovers near zero; colour declares itself through subtle shifts in hue rather than outright saturation. The highest-chroma note - #D8BB51 - appears at just 2.0%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. From deepest dark to palest light, the palette traverses 65 units of the value scale - a span that creates natural depth. High luminosity and cool temperature suggest the plein-air condition: unfiltered daylight and open sky.
