Colours are neither washed out nor blazing; they occupy the productive middle ground of the chroma scale. #5C1F12 functions as the palette's exclamation mark: highest chroma, lowest percentage (5.0%). The full value range is 60 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form. The palette is a signature: William McGregor Paxton's particular sense of value, warmth, and colour weight made legible.
