Parpajun

Il parpaglion che fere a la lumera
per lo splendor, ché sì bella gli pare,
s'aventa ad essa per la grande spera,
tanto che si conduce a divampare:           

così facc'io, mirando vostra cera,
madonna, e 'l vostro dolce ragionare,
che diletando struggo come cera
e non posso la voglia rinfrenare.           

Così son divenuto parpaglione
che more al foco per sua claritate,
e per natura ha 'n sé quella cagione:         

ed io, madonna, per vostra bieltate,
mirandola, consumo in pensagione,
se per merzé non trovo in voi pietate.

 "use of candlelight on those classical canvases, and Kubrick’s desire to replicate that look. According to lens expert Ed DiGuilio, who was tasked with adapting the f/0.7 glass for Lyndon, Kubrick “wanted to preserve the natural patina and feeling of these old castles at night as they actually were”."

Godfried Schalcken or Gottfried Schalken (1643 – 16 November 1706) was a Dutch genre and portrait painter. He was noted for his mastery in reproducing the effect of candlelight, and painted in the exquisite and highly polished manner of the Leiden fijnschilders.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Godfried_Schalcken

"Schalcken painted several portraits, of which the half-length of William III of England, now in the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam, is a good example. Like Dou, Schalcken specialised in small scenes lit by candlelight,[1] a technique that found favour with the fijnschilders. Examples are in Buckingham Palace, the Louvre, Vienna and Dresden."
