Vasily Surikov sits in the centre of the value range, lending the palette a sense of even, sustained light. Heat pervades this palette; warm chromatic identities outweigh cool ones at almost every weight. Chroma hovers near zero; colour declares itself through subtle shifts in hue rather than outright saturation. The most saturated colour, #93795C, is reserved to 9.4% of the surface, where it acts as a focal punctuation. 47 units of value spread create a palette that is varied but unified - contrast in the service of harmony. Palette 7 sits within the larger chromatic argument that Vasily Surikov's complete body of work advances.
