1949
From the collection of Visual Art Museum Galați
Bucureștiul de altădată is a 1949 by Marius Bunescu, held at Visual Art Museum Galați.
This painting shows a quiet, snowy street scene with a yellowish building in the center. The roof and fence are dusted with snow, and bare trees stand on the left. The sky is pale and blurry, like a cold, overcast day. A dark iron fence runs along the bottom edge, separating the viewer from the scene. The brushstrokes are loose and quick, giving the whole image a soft, sketchy feel. It looks like the artist focused on capturing the mood of a snowy moment rather than every detail. If you like this style, look up impasto next to see how thick paint can create texture.
Marius Bunescu (15 May 1881 – 31 March 1971) was a Romanian painter, organizer of the National Museum of Art, and director of the Anastase Simu Museum.
