I'd forgotten that I'd started this topic here - well, it was over six years ago now so I may be forgiven the lapse of memory.

There are many, many good photographs here - but by no means all of them are what I would classify as chiaroscuro.

There is a good exhibition on at the National Gallery in London, unfortunately finishing today if you've not seen it, called Beyond Caravaggio, showing many fine examples of this style in art, which they summarise as a combination of drama and lighting.
