Wilhelm von Kaulbach 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. Colours are neither washed out nor blazing; they occupy the productive middle ground of the chroma scale. #AA652C functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (8.5%). At 61 units of value range, the palette has the tonal breadth to sustain complex spatial readings. This is palette 1 of Wilhelm von Kaulbach's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
