About this work

This painting shows a rough, hilly landscape with jagged peaks and uneven ground. The colors are mostly muted—dull browns, grays, and whites—with some darker shadows near the bottom. The brushstrokes look loose and quick, like the artist worked fast or outside. The title *La poalele dealului* means "At the foot of the hill" in Romanian, which fits the scene. The painting feels sketchy, almost like a quick study rather than a polished work. Next, check out Carol Szathmari, the artist who made this.
