Mag is a 1886 unspecified by Sava Henția, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
This painting depicts a woman with dark, wavy hair and a dark dress. She holds a stick or staff in her right hand, with her eyes cast downward. The background is a muted brown color. The woman's dark attire and the somber background create a sense of solemnity. The stick or staff she holds adds an air of mystery to the scene. To learn more about the artist's use of chiaroscuro, a technique that uses strong contrasts between light and dark to create a sense of volume in modeling three-dimensional objects and figures, explore the work of Henția, Sava.
