Palette Analysis
Thomas Eakins occupies the comfortable middle of the value scale, avoiding both extremes to hold the eye in a sustained middle grey. Warmth dominates - the palette of Thomas Eakins leans heavily on the yellow-orange-red arc of the colour wheel. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. At 5.0%, #3F2414 carries the palette's sharpest chromatic charge: an accent that earns its place precisely because it is withheld. At 64 units of value range, the palette has the tonal breadth to sustain complex spatial readings. This is palette 11 of Thomas Eakins's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
