Cap de studiu is a work by Henriette Bielz, held at Brukenthal National Museum.
This is a close-up portrait of a person wearing a dark, textured coat and a dark hat. Their face is pale with a slight flush on the cheeks, and the brushstrokes are thick and uneven, especially around the hat and collar. The background is mostly plain with a few faint strokes of color. The painting feels unfinished, like the artist might have stopped mid-work. The signature in the top right corner reads "H. Bielz. 1919," but the rest of the details are left to the imagination. Next, look up Bielz, Henriette to see more of her work.
Henriette Bielz painted scenes of everyday life in late-19th-century Transylvania.
