Palette Analysis

Mid-key values give Tenebrism its characteristic quietness - nothing blazes, nothing disappears. Warmth dominates - the palette leans heavily on the yellow-orange-red arc of the colour wheel. Chroma is held at a comfortable level - distinct colours, but no single hue is allowed to overwhelm. The highest-chroma note - #C58E2B - appears at just 8.5%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. At 62 units of value range, the palette has the tonal breadth to sustain complex spatial readings.
