1871

Dominant colour
Atelierul pictorului (casa Prager) is a 1871 by Theodor Aman, held at Bucharest Municipality Museum.
This room looks like an artist’s messy workspace. Dark walls are covered in framed paintings of different sizes, some portraits, some landscapes. A half-finished portrait sits on an easel in the corner, showing a woman in a white dress. The floor is cluttered with tools, fabric scraps, and a red couch sits in the shadows. The artist’s table is piled with brushes and papers, and a small bust sits on a shelf by the door. The lighting is dim, making the warm tones of the wood and fabrics stand out. If you like this cozy, lived-in studio, check out chiaroscuro for how artists use light and shadow.
Theodor Aman (20 March 1831 – 19 August 1891) was a Romanian painter, engraver and art professor. He mostly produced genre and history scenes.
