a. sfumato

Correggio’s dome uses the soft, smoky transitions of tone and color (softened edges and atmospheric modeling) associated with Leonardo’s sfumato. Chiaroscuro (b) involves strong light–dark modeling, linear perspective (c) is about measured orthogonal space, and tenebrism (d) is the extreme light/dark contrast used by Caravaggio.
