Moară is a 1918 unspecified by Gheorghe Petrașcu, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
This painting shows a landscape with a watermill in the center. The mill is made of stone and has a red roof. There's a stream running through the painting, and trees are visible on both sides. The colors are mostly earthy tones like brown, green, and gray. One interesting detail is the way the light falls on the mill, highlighting its texture and shape. It's a quiet moment, with no people or animals in sight. If you're interested in learning more about this style of painting, you might want to look up the technique of chiaroscuro.
