This painting called the entombment by Rembrandt show three areas with light with rest nearly all darkness. I think this is a clever tool the artist can use to engage what the viewer focuses on, what the artists wants them to look at. Here I think the focus point Rembrandt wanted the most is the man laying down with everyone looking at him in the surrounded dark area. Due to it also being the lightest area in the painting it also is the most detailed and most impressive area. This is want i want to start applying to my own artwork in the field of illustration.
