Narcis is a 1850 by anonim, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
The painting depicts a man with long hair, wearing a red cloth wrapped around his waist. He is barefoot and stands in a forest, with trees and bushes surrounding him. The man's body is turned to the right, and he looks down at the ground. The man's pose suggests that he is lost in thought or gazing at something on the ground. The forest setting adds a sense of serenity and tranquility to the scene. This painting is reminiscent of the works of artists who use chiaroscuro, a technique that uses strong contrasts between light and dark to create a sense of depth and volume.
This anonymous painter made small religious scenes with bold, flat colors and shaky lines, following old church traditions.
