Partida de croquet is a 1929 by Hans Eder, held at Brukenthal National Museum.
This painting shows a rough, textured scene with thick brushstrokes. The colors are muddy and uneven—greens, browns, and yellows—like a half-finished sketch. On the right side, there’s a faint outline of a person, maybe playing or standing. The background looks like a building with steps and a fence, but it’s hard to tell what it’s supposed to be. The paint is applied in heavy, uneven layers, almost like it was slapped on. This style makes the scene feel messy and quick, not polished. The colors blend poorly, giving it a raw, unfinished look. If you like this rough, textured style, look up impasto.
