and

used dramatic tenebrism (as if lit by spotlight)

Explain:

Rembrandt is famous because of his painting style that included dramatic illumination called tenebrism. This means the big contrast between the dark and shaded painting and the details that look as if they are illuminated by a spotlight. Another thing he has frequently used was the impasto technique. This is laying paint on the canvas in the manner that the thick layer stands out, that brush or knifer strokes are visible, and that they vary with the think paint layers. Rembrandt used this to increase highlighted and shadowed surfaces, as well as to create texture more realistically, like, for example, the texture of the skin on the portraits.
