Centering on the lower Danube with its feathery tributaries, this palette was designed to isolate the tallest hills while …staying fairly quiet and a bit on the sad side. Low seashores are made indistinct, and the gray tones are surprisingly readable in distinguishing the degree of local dissection. This is a topographically complex part of the world, and using a simple palette allows the eye to select portions of patterns, and to organize the landscape into neighborhood groupings.
