Elena Greculesi

Elena Greculesi made prints of the Dobrogea landscape in the early-to-mid 20th century. Her print Peisaj dobrogean shows rolling hills, low vineyards, and the flat light that hangs over the Danube-Black Sea steppe. The lines are spare, the ink a little dry, as if the plate barely scratched the paper. You can step into the quiet of that plateau next by looking at Peisaj dobrogean itself.
