Portretul Profesorului Eugen Ciolac is an unspecified by Ion Țuculescu, depicting Portrait, held at Art museum of Craiova.
This is a close-up portrait of a man in profile. He’s wearing a dark suit jacket, a light shirt, and a tie. The background is plain and dark, so all the focus is on his face and shoulders. His hair is light and slightly wavy, and he has a mustache. The lighting hits his face from one side, making his skin glow while the rest stays shadowy. This kind of lighting is called *chiaroscuro*—it’s all about strong contrasts between light and dark. Look up chiaroscuro to see how artists use it to create drama in portraits.
