From the collection of Bucharest Municipality Museum
Casa Pallady-peisaj rustic is a 1950 unspecified by Micaela Eleutheriade, held at Bucharest Municipality Museum.
This painting shows a simple house with a rusty metal roof and a small chimney. The building sits in a field with dry, golden grass and a few bare trees. In the background, rolling hills stretch out, painted in warm yellows and greens. The brushstrokes are thick in places, especially on the roof and hills, giving the scene a textured look. This style is called *impasto*—when paint is laid on thick so you can almost feel the strokes. Check out impasto to see how artists use thick paint for bold effects.
Micaela Eleutheriade (1900–1982) was a noted Romanian painter and engraver. She was a descendant, through her mother, of the painter Gheorghe Tattarescu, the pioneer of neoclassicism in Romania.
