Chiaroscuro style horses by Ramon Casares

Chiaroscuro is the use of contrast between light and dark to emphasize and illuminate important figures in a painting or drawing.
Artists who are famed for the use of chiaroscuro include Leonardo da Vinci and Caravaggio.

Here chiaroscuro, translated into the black and white fine art photography create an air of mystery and private intimacy giving to horse almost ethereal effect.
