Târla părăsită is a 1850 unspecified by Nicolae Grigorescu, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
This painting shows an empty field with a broken-down wooden cart tipped on its side. The cart’s roof is sagging, and its wheels are buried in the dirt. Tall grass and a few scattered rocks fill the foreground, while the background is a flat, pale landscape under a light blue sky. The brushstrokes are loose and rough, almost like the scene was painted quickly. The colors are muted, with earthy browns and greens dominating the scene. If you like this style, look up Nicolae Grigorescu to see more of his work.
Romanian painter Nicolae Grigorescu made quiet, honest scenes of everyday life and country roads around 1900.
