Peisaj de munte is a 1882 by Sava Henția, a Impressionism work, held at Iulian Antonescu Bacău Museum Complex.
This painting shows a small village nestled in a mountainous valley. Rustic wooden houses with thatched roofs sit on a grassy slope, surrounded by dark green trees. A lone figure in dark clothing stands near the foreground, looking toward the huts. The sky is a soft blue, with distant peaks faintly visible through the mist. The brushwork is loose, almost sketchy, which makes the scene feel fresh and alive. This style was meant to capture light and nature as they really appear, not perfectly polished.
