Spaniola is a 1850 by Lucia Dem-Bălăcescu, depicting Portrait, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
This is a blank white canvas with a thin wire stretched across it. The wire loops once in the middle, creating a small circle. The frame is wooden with red and cream edges, held together by metal brackets. The wire looks purposefully placed, almost like a ghostly outline. It’s the only thing breaking up the empty space. Next, check out the artist: Dem-Bălăcescu, Lucia to see how she uses simple elements like this.
Lucia Dem-Bălăcescu (1895–1979) was an artist, born in Bucharest.
