Chiaroscuro - Light & Shadow
Details
Today we'll be looking at the work of the Italian artist Caravaggio. Caravaggio adopted chiaroscuro in his paintings in the 16th century- his work beautifully combines a realistic view of the human state- physical and emotional- with a dramatic use of lighting.
Chiaroscuro is an Italian term referencing the contrast of light (chiar) and dark (oscuro). It’s a style that has quite dramatic results and one that photographers can learn a lot amount about lighting from studying.
We will also discuss how to get great street photography shots.
