Toteme brune is an unspecified by Ion Țuculescu, held at Bucharest Municipality Museum.
This painting looks messy on purpose. Thick, rough brushstrokes pile up in bold colors—deep blues, earthy browns, and bright yellows. Shapes feel like faces or masks, but they’re blurred and overlapping. A tall blue stripe cuts through the middle, while a green leafy branch sits awkwardly at the bottom. The texture is almost 3D, like the paint was slapped on in layers. The colors clash but somehow balance out. It’s not trying to be realistic—just raw and expressive. If you like this style, look up impasto next.
