Case la mahala is a 1938 unspecified by Adam Bălțatu, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
The painting depicts a small, rundown village with a few buildings and a dirt road. The buildings are made of stone or brick and have a worn, weathered appearance. The sky above is gray and overcast. In the foreground, there is a patch of green grass or weeds growing near the road. The overall atmosphere of the painting is one of neglect and abandonment. This painting is reminiscent of the work of other artists who have depicted rural landscapes and scenes of everyday life.
