Uliță cu căruțe is a 1939 unspecified by Adam Bălțatu, held at Bucharest Municipality Museum.
This painting shows a quiet village street with two old buildings—one made of wood, the other of whitewashed stone. A horse pulls a simple cart loaded with something covered, while a person in a dark coat walks ahead. The ground is dusty, and bare trees stand in the background under a pale sky. The brushstrokes are thick in spots, especially on the horse and buildings, giving them a textured look. The colors are muted, with earthy browns and grays dominating the scene. Look up impasto next to see how artists use thick paint like this.
Adam Bălțatu (1889–1979) was an artist, born in Huși.
