William Blake occupies the comfortable middle of the value scale, avoiding both extremes to hold the eye in a sustained middle grey. Yellow, ochre, sienna: warm hues that William Blake deploys as the palette's primary energy. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. #9C6F43 is not a small accent - at 8.8% it qualifies as a major presence and gives the palette its chromatic identity. The palette spans 52 value units: a measured range that delivers coherence over drama. In the context of William Blake's full range of palettes, group 7 represents one movement in an ongoing chromatic dialogue.
