Dominant colour
Autoportret cu fes roșu is a 1956 by Corneliu Baba, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
This painting shows a person wearing a bright red hat pulled low over their face. Their hood is dark, almost black, and the background is a flat, dark green. The face is blurred, with only rough shapes showing—no clear eyes or mouth. The red hat stands out against the dark colors, making it the focus. The brushstrokes look thick and uneven, giving it a rough, sketchy feel. If you like this style, look up *impasto* next.
Corneliu Baba was a Romanian painter, primarily a portraitist, but also known as a genre painter and an illustrator of books.
