Palette Analysis
Values in Synthetic Cubism rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. Heat pervades this palette; warm chromatic identities outweigh cool ones at almost every weight. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. #7C5339 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (5.6%). 65 units of value range underpin the palette's structural clarity: the eye always knows where light falls.
