This photo shows a single butterfly resting on a rough, dark surface. The wings are detailed with white and black patterns, standing out against the shadowy background. The lighting is soft, making the butterfly the only bright spot. The artist used light and shadow to focus attention on the butterfly. This kind of contrast is called *chiaroscuro*—a technique that makes one part pop while keeping the rest dark. Look up chiaroscuro to see how artists use light and shadow to create drama.
