1946
From the collection of Art museum of Craiova
Mihail Sorbul is a 1946 by Corneliu Baba, held at Art museum of Craiova.
This painting shows a man with a serious expression, looking slightly to the side. He’s wearing a dark scarf wrapped high around his neck and a maroon jacket. The background is plain and dark, keeping all the focus on his face and clothes. The brushstrokes are loose but confident, especially on the scarf and jacket. The lighting highlights his face while leaving the background shadowy. Check out the technique called *chiaroscuro* next.
Corneliu Baba was a Romanian painter, primarily a portraitist, but also known as a genre painter and an illustrator of books.
