" He developed a number of innovative artistic techniques including chiaroscuro, which produces subtle shadings of color and bold contrasts between light and dark. Chiaroscuro grew in popularity among artists in later centuries. Leonardo is also credited with creating a technique called sfumato, which produces a hazy effect that gives his paintings a look of softness rather than harsh detail." [ Lifelines 50]
