Light floods Ukiyo-e; the palette keeps values pale and airy across its range. Temperature reads distinctly warm: the reds and earth tones carry the compositional weight. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. #E2D0B9 claims 31.0% of the surface, functioning as the work's tonal foundation. The most saturated colour, #B0523D, is reserved to 1.7% of the surface, where it acts as a focal punctuation. From deepest dark to palest light, the palette traverses 68 units of the value scale - a span that creates natural depth.
