Strada Colței is a 1930 unspecified by Marius Bunescu, held at Bucharest Municipality Museum.
This painting shows a snowy street with a bright yellow building in the foreground. The building has arched windows and a faded sign on the roof. Behind it, older, darker buildings loom, some with snow piled on their roofs. A lone figure walks near the yellow building, dressed in dark clothes. The brushstrokes are thick and rough, giving the scene a textured, almost sketchy feel. The colors pop—especially the yellow—while the background stays muted and cool. If you like this style, look up impasto next.
A Romanian painter who captured the city’s quiet corners, Marius Bunescu’s brush brought old streets and half-collapsed theaters to life.
