Palette Analysis
Values in Theophile Steinlen 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. Chroma hovers near zero; colour declares itself through subtle shifts in hue rather than outright saturation. The highest-chroma note - #907D5E - appears at just 6.8%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. The value range spans 62 units across the palette, providing the full gamut from deep shadow to near-white and ensuring clear tonal hierarchy. This is palette 12 of Theophile Steinlen's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
