Rembrandt Lighting




Rembrandt Portrait Lighting – Rembrandt lighting is a name given to the lighting effect that the old master used to use for the lighting effects in many of his paintings.  It’s basically short lighting where the shadow from the nose connects with the shadow on the side of the face, thus creating a triangle of light on the short side of the face.  If the nose shadow does not connect with the cheek shadow, it’s not considered to be Rembrandt lighting, just short lighting.
