ChiaroScuro is available on Netflix

How do you spot a fake painting… or a misleading crime scene? ChiaroScuro, Netflix’s new Italian series, pairs an art expert with a police officer in an investigation set in Rome’s museums.

Cosmo Speranza, played by Pierpaolo Spollon, knows how to spot the details that give away a forgery. The discovery of a body in a museum leads him to work with Inspector Angelo Tiberi, played by Andrea Lattanzi. Their collaboration brings a mystery from Cosmo’s past back to the surface.

Directed by Jan Maria Michelini, the series consists of eight episodes and is produced by Lux Vide. Matilde Gioli, Romana Maggiora Vergano and Aurora Giovinazzo also star, with appearances by Paz Vega and Alessandro Preziosi.
