Portretul Dr. Rossignon is a 1922 by Aurel Băeșu, held at Ion Irimescu Art Museum.
This is a portrait of an older man with a bald head and a mustache. He’s wearing a dark coat, a white shirt, and a bow tie. The background is plain and dark, so the face stands out clearly. The painting focuses on the man’s face and upper body, with soft brushstrokes that catch the light on his skin. His expression is calm but serious. Next, look up the technique: chiaroscuro to see how artists use light and shadow.
Aurel Băeșu (26 May 1896 – 24 August 1928) was a Romanian Impressionist landscape and portrait painter. Many of his works show the influence of Nicolae Grigorescu; an influence that was common among painters of his generation.
