Wow, this is really cool stuff. You did a great job.

Ugh...n00b talk time. Er...tenebrist light? And...Baroque...it sounds familiar, but only vaguely.

    Well, the Baroque was the art movement after the Renaissance... and tenebrist light was a style developed by Carravaggio which became really popular in the Baroque. It's essentially a really powerful light source coming from one direction. A candle or lamp, in many Flemish paintings of the time.
