The value structure of Surrealism is mid-key: quiet, controlled, and cohesive. Temperature is cool-dominant, with blue and green families claiming the largest areas. Colours are neither washed out nor blazing; they occupy the productive middle ground of the chroma scale. Only 3.4% is devoted to #7F4A30, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. A value spread of 57 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light. High luminosity and cool temperature suggest the plein-air condition: unfiltered daylight and open sky.
