În refugiu is a 1916 unspecified by Ion Dumitrescu-Stoica, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
This painting shows a busy outdoor scene with people and animals. The brushstrokes are thick and rough, giving it a textured look. Some folks are walking, others are loading or unloading carts, and a horse stands in the middle. The colors are mostly earthy—browns, grays, and muted greens—with a few bright spots like a red hat and yellow cloth. The painting feels alive but not polished. The artist used thick paint in some areas, making it look almost three-dimensional. This style is called *impasto*. Look up impasto to see how other artists used thick paint for texture.
