1914
From the collection of Bucharest Municipality Museum
Cap de revoluționară is a 1914 by Cecilia Cuțescu-Storck, held at Bucharest Municipality Museum.
This painting shows a woman’s face in profile, her head turned slightly away. Her hair is pulled back, and she wears a dark collar that frames her neck. The background is plain and dark, making her skin tones stand out. The artist focused on the play of light and shadow on her face, especially around the jaw and cheek. This style makes her look real and three-dimensional. Next, check out *chiaroscuro* to see how light and dark create drama in art.
Cecilia Cuțescu-Storck was a Romanian painter with a strong influence on cultural life in the interwar period.
