Portret de copil is an unspecified by Arthur Coulin, held at Brukenthal National Museum.
This painting shows a boy with light hair and blue eyes. He’s wearing a dark jacket over a white shirt with a high collar. The background is dark with splashes of red and blue, almost like a blurred curtain. The boy’s face is lit softly, making his skin glow against the shadows. The brushstrokes are thick in some spots, especially on his hair and jacket, giving it texture. Next, check out *chiaroscuro* to see how light and shadow create depth in portraits.
