The Green Knight (2021), dir. David Lowery

Chiaroscuro (kjaro'sku:ro) lit. “light-dark,” chiaroscuro is the Renaissance composition style where lightness and darkness are used in stark, frequently startling contrast. Popularized by Caravaggio (1571-1610) to such an extent that in later Baroque art it became known as caravaggism or, alternatively, tenebrism, the style immediately draws the eye to the main subject, who is often highlighted by just one light source.

Tenebrism is characterized by a flat, black background, while chiaroscuro usually builds some depth into a darkened, but still slightly detectable, field. Edges are softened, and the subject seems to melt into the surrounding shadows—a more intense version of Leonardo da Vinci’s (1452-1519) smokier, dreamier sfumato technique. (x, x, x, x)
