The Dramatic Light and Shadow in Caravaggio’s Oil Works

Caravaggio pioneered the unique chiaroscuro technique in oil painting creation, creating dramatic light and shadow contrast effects. He used strong collision of bright light and deep shadow to highlight the main body of the picture, enhance spatial hierarchy and visual tension. This bold light and shadow processing breaks the flat and gentle tone of traditional paintings, endows static works with strong dramatic sense and story rhythm, and lays an important foundation for the development of Baroque art.
