Casă veche is an unspecified by Gheorghe Petrașcu, held at Brukenthal National Museum.
The painting depicts a serene scene of an old house, with a white façade and a dark roof. The house has two stories, with arched openings on the ground floor and windows on the upper floor. A ladder leans against the wall, and a tree stands to the right of the house. The painting's style is characterized by loose brushstrokes and vivid colors, with a focus on capturing the play of light and shadow on the house's surface. The overall effect is one of quiet contemplation, inviting the viewer to step into the peaceful world of the painting. To learn more about the artist's use of chiaroscuro, look up Gheorghe Petrașcu.
