Palette Analysis
William Daniell occupies the comfortable middle of the value scale, avoiding both extremes to hold the eye in a sustained middle grey. Cool tones set the register here - the blues and greens easily outweigh any warm accents. All colours lean toward grey, building depth through value rather than colour punch. The most saturated colour, #3A2C1C, is reserved to 6.8% of the surface, where it acts as a focal punctuation. At 52 units across the value scale, the palette keeps contrast readable without letting it dominate. High luminosity and cool temperature suggest the plein-air condition: unfiltered daylight and open sky. Palette 1 sits within the larger chromatic argument that William Daniell's complete body of work advances.
