Palette Analysis
Synthetic Cubism distributes its values across the middle register, creating harmony without high contrast. The palette tilts toward cool - blues and silver-greys carry the structural weight. Chroma is kept low across all colours, producing the soft, enveloping quality that characterises tonal painting. #785D42 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (7.4%). A value spread of 62 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light. The palette has the character of outdoor light: cool, mid-bright, with colour rendered faithfully rather than expressively.
