Odihnă la câmp (din seria „1907”) is a 1956 by Corneliu Baba, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
This painting shows a woman in a heavy brown coat and headscarf sitting on the ground, holding a child’s hand. Behind her, two other children lean against a rough wall, wrapped in thin clothes. The background is dark and blurry, making the figures stand out. The woman’s face looks tired but steady, while the children seem small and vulnerable. The brushstrokes are thick, giving the scene a rough, textured feel. Look up impasto to see how this technique works.
