From the collection of National Museum of Art of Romania
Vlad Țepeș și solii turci is a 1862 unspecified by Theodor Aman, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
This painting shows a group of men in a grand room with tall columns and a checkered floor. One man in a bright yellow robe stands out, gesturing toward a seated figure in red and black armor. Others in dark clothes and hats watch from the sides, while a few stand near a doorway in the back. The seated man’s red cloak is spread out on the floor, and his face looks serious. The lighting makes the yellow-robed man stand out against the darker background. If you like this kind of scene, check out chiaroscuro next.
Theodor Aman (20 March 1831 – 19 August 1891) was a Romanian painter, engraver and art professor. He mostly produced genre and history scenes.
