The high-key values of T?sh?sai Sharaku give it an effulgent, almost bleached quality. Warm hues command this palette; T?sh?sai Sharaku favours the reds, oranges, and yellows of firelight and earth. Chroma is held at a comfortable level - distinct colours, but no single hue is allowed to overwhelm. The highest-chroma note - #CBAB74 - appears at just 11.0%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. The value range of 44 units sits in the comfortable middle: enough depth, enough light, neither extreme. This is palette 1 of T?sh?sai Sharaku's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
