Fata cu salba is a 1894 unspecified by Sava Henția, a Biedermeier work, held at Bucharest Municipality Museum.
This painting shows a woman with dark hair and a serious expression. She’s wearing a light-colored blouse with a beaded neckline that has gold coins sewn onto it. The background is plain and dark, keeping all the focus on her face. The brushstrokes look loose, almost like quick sketches, which makes the colors feel soft and natural. The painting seems to capture a real person in a simple, everyday moment. If you like this style, look up Impressionism.
Sava Henția (1 February 1848, Sebeșel - 21 February 1904, Sebeșel) was an Imperial Austrian-born Romanian painter, decorator and illustrator.
