Chiaroscuro 

Italian for light and dark dramatic use of contrasts of light and shade.

That painting has great use of chiaroscuro.

chiaroscuro 

1 the french word for contrast
2 the rat from The Tale Of Despereaux
3 the name of my guinea pig

chiaroscuro really likes the light, but was born and raised in the dark, so he became a troubled rat

chiaroscuro 

I'm the only person smart enough to know what this means... anyway it means the contrast of light and dark.

Chiaroscuro. How the hell do you make an example?
