About this work

This close-up shows a dark, faded print with rough brushstrokes and patches of missing paint. The only clear mark is the handwritten word *"Bunica"* in uneven red letters, along with a few faint blue and white strokes that might be part of a face or scene. The word *Bunica* means "grandmother" in Romanian, hinting this might show two generations together. The paint is worn, with some areas scratched or rubbed away over time. Check out the Museum of Ethnography to see more works like this.
