Tom Roberts Palette 6

Vermillion Brilliant red-orange - the classic mercury sulfide pigment, vivid and warm.
Palette Analysis
Tom Roberts distributes its values across the middle register, creating harmony without high contrast. The dominant temperature is warm, with earth tones and fire-hues setting the emotional key. Chroma is moderate: colours carry enough saturation to be read as colour, but the palette stops well short of garish intensity. #E5942D at 18.6% is both the most chromatic and one of the largest colours in the palette - chroma as mass rather than as highlight. At 58 units of value range, the palette has the tonal breadth to sustain complex spatial readings. This is palette 6 of Tom Roberts's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
