The correct anwer is: A Greek painter.

The chiaroscuro is a technique that appeals to the contrasts between shadows and light in a work to highlight certain elements of the painting and to develop visual effects of modeling and relief.

Apollodorus of Athens is considered to be the inventor of the primitive system of chiaroscuro with a pattern of lines for modeling objects and curved figures.
