Masa is a 1950 by Teodor Hrib, held at Gavrila Simion Eco-Museum Research Institute Tulcea.
This painting shows a simple wooden shelf with four objects on it. On the left is a jar with a dark, swirled pattern and a metal lid. Next to it is a small, green glass box. In the middle are two potted plants—one with long, spiky leaves and another with bushier green tops. The shelf has a cloth with a red-brown pattern and a few dark spots on it. The brushstrokes are loose and quick, giving the scene a rough, sketchy feel. The colors are mostly muted, except for the bright green of the glass box. If you like this kind of quiet, everyday scene, look up still life.
