The high-key values of Thomas Dewing give it an effulgent, almost bleached quality. Temperature is balanced: the palette pits warm earth against cool sky without declaring a winner. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. At 42.4%, #C4A58C functions less as a colour accent and more as a complete atmospheric environment. #174E81 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (1.8%). The palette spans 47 value units: a measured range that delivers coherence over drama. This is palette 2 of Thomas Dewing's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
