Values in Vasily Vereshchagin rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. Blues and teal-greys govern the palette, lending it an aquatic or atmospheric quality. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. Only 10.0% is devoted to #544428, yet that small allocation delivers the palette's entire chromatic tension. From deepest dark to palest light, the palette traverses 58 units of the value scale - a span that creates natural depth. High luminosity and cool temperature suggest the plein-air condition: unfiltered daylight and open sky. This is palette 10 of Vasily Vereshchagin's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
