This photo shows a group of men in old-fashioned clothes standing indoors. One man in a shiny silver outfit and red stockings leans on a chair, while others in dark robes and white collars watch him. The room looks dim, with a dark background and a faint staircase behind them. The photo was taken in 1783 to show a historical event from 1660, where power was handed over to Frederik III. The artist used strong light and shadow to make the scene dramatic. Look up *chiaroscuro* to see how this lighting technique works.
