The studio lights created light spots which are very effective in making the image more dramatic and hides away the identity of the the person. The light is placed behind the subject and this is called backlighting which has an illuminating and glowing effect around the edges of them, creating a certain intensity. This was illustrated using artificial lighting. Chiaroscuro is a lighting effect created by a careful contrast of light and shadows. It is best exemplified in film noir productions
The images below are perfect example of Chiaroscuro lighting, indicating light and dark imagery. This lighting is also used in paintings displayed from George De La Tour - The Carpenter 1642 who portrayed artistic paintings with low key settings. I have recreated this painting similarly by displaying light in a dark setting. This created shadows and silhouettes.
