symbolic painting keeps values measured and balanced, a hallmark of tonal restraint. Neither warm nor cool has the upper hand here; the equilibrium between the two generates the palette's visual energy. All colours lean toward grey, building depth through value rather than colour punch. The most saturated colour, #DED3BA, is reserved to 7.7% of the surface, where it acts as a focal punctuation. 61 units of value range underpin the palette's structural clarity: the eye always knows where light falls.
