Mid-key values give Symbolism its characteristic quietness - nothing blazes, nothing disappears. The palette balances warm and cool with remarkable evenness, giving the composition its characteristic vibrancy. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. The saturated accent, #BCA269, registers at 8.2% - sparse enough to feel like a deliberate surprise. At 59 units of value range, the palette has the tonal breadth to sustain complex spatial readings.
