This close-up shows thick, textured brushstrokes in dark blues and browns. The paint looks rough, almost like it was slapped on with a palette knife. There’s a vertical stripe of darker, almost black paint on the left side, while the rest blends into a murky, uneven surface. The title *Peisaj cu Cai* hints at a landscape with horses—though you’d need to see the full painting to spot them. The heavy texture suggests the artist wanted the paint itself to feel like part of the scene. Look up impasto to see how this thick paint technique works.
