[edit]This is a well-written, well-organised and well-cited article that was a pleasure to read. I'm essentially ready to pass it without further ado, but I thought a couple of things might be worth mentioning:
The technique is traced, correctly, to the work of painters such as Leonardo and Caravaggio. Would it not be helpful to include an example of the low-key work of each of these two, to give an idea of what low-key meant there (and hence, what photographers could work from)?Done
- The lead is rather short and does not mention the history of painting or photography.

Some more is needed (lead should mention the content of each section in the article, basically).Robertgombos (talk) 05:23, 6 June 2018 (UTC)
The lead should also mention painting the body in black to reflect the text.Done
In the second paragraph of the Photography section, the titles of famous works such as "Portrait of Winston Churchill" should be in italics (or else quotation marks). They shouldn't really contain wikilinks, either, unless these go to articles on the works rather than to the people portrayed in those works.Done
The gallery seems to me to go beyond the text with its interesting image "Low-key photograph combined mixed with red; two light sources". The text should discuss this technique, with a suitable citation.
- This is an entire philosophical story behind some of the photographs featuring the painted human body. I’ve written a lengthy story about the meaning of a spot of color on a black canvas – in my dissertation. Black invokes mistery, death, unknown while red symbolizes life in most cultures. Mixing a non-color with a strong one results, metaphorically, a nice story about us, humans, feeling sometimes trapped in our own body. I can't quote myself. By the way, on my user page, at the very bottom, you'll find a tripple triptic assembled image. That was my work.
- guess we can let it go then.
