Femeia cu pisică is an unspecified by Francisc Șirato, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
This painting shows a person sitting with their back to us, legs bent in front of a rocky ledge. Their skin is painted in soft peach and brown tones, with light catching the curve of their shoulders. The background is blurry greens and earthy colors, like a forest or garden. The person’s hair is pulled back, and their arms rest on their knees. A small, dark shape near their waist might be a cat—though it’s hard to tell. The brushstrokes are thick in places, giving the skin a textured look. Look up impasto to see how artists use thick paint like this.
Francisc Șirato painted quiet scenes of people and places, often with soft light and gentle colors.
