Peisaj din Cișmigiu is a 1850 by Hrandt Avakian, depicting Plein-air, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
This sketch shows two people sitting under a large blue umbrella. The paint is loose and watery, with quick brushstrokes that leave some areas rough and others blurred. One person is hunched over, while the other sits upright, but both are drawn in simple, sketchy lines. The background is faint—just hints of trees and a bench, barely filled in. The umbrella is the only solid shape, its blue color standing out against the pale, unfinished look of the rest. The artist didn’t worry about details, making everything feel quick and rough, like a first draft. If you like this loose style, look up *plein-air*.
Hrandt Avakian (1900–1990) was an artist, born in Aleppo.
