Palette Analysis
William Maw Egley keeps values measured and balanced, a hallmark of tonal restraint. Heat pervades this palette; warm chromatic identities outweigh cool ones at almost every weight. Every colour is desaturated; the palette proceeds through near-neutrals and gently-coloured greys. The highest-chroma note - #8E5F36 - appears at just 7.1%, deployed as a precision accent against the quieter ground. A value spread of 68 units gives the palette both depth and air - shadows are genuinely dark, lights genuinely light. This is palette 1 of William Maw Egley's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
