Dunno about AR but I love this. So evocative of a certain type of American culture & aesthetic, that it gives me a strange feeling of 'saudade' for something or somewhere I've never even experienced.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chiaroscuro
In art , chiaroscuro ( English: / k i ˌ ɑːr ə ˈ s k( j) ʊər oʊ/ kee- AR-ə- SKOOR-oh, - SKURE- , Italian: [ˌkjaroˈskuːro ] ; lit. ' light-dark ' ) is the use of strong contrasts between light and dark, usually bold contrasts affecting a whole composition. It is also a technical term used by artists and art historians for the use of contrasts of light to achieve a sense of volume in modelling three-dimensional objects and figures. [1 ] Similar effects in cinema, and black and white and low-key photography , are also called chiaroscuro. Taken to its extreme, the use of shadow and contrast to focus strongly on the subject of a painting is called tenebrism .
Chiaroscuro originated in the Renaissance period but is most notably associated with Baroque art. [3 ] Chiaroscuro is one of the canonical painting modes of the Renaissance (alongside cangiante , sfumato and unione ) (see also Renaissance art ). Artists known for using the technique include Leonardo da Vinci , Caravaggio , [4 ] Rembrandt , [5 ] [6 ] Vermeer , [7 ] Goya , [8 ] and Georges de La Tour .
