Autoportret is an unspecified by Corneliu Baba, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
This painting shows a person with gray hair and a neutral expression, wearing a dark robe and a colorful hat. They hold a paintbrush and a small palette in their right hand, while their left hand rests open. The background is plain and dark, keeping focus on the figure. The brushstrokes are thick and visible, giving the painting texture. This style is called *impasto*—when paint is laid on thickly so you can almost see the strokes. Check out impasto to see how artists use thick paint to add depth.
Corneliu Baba made prints and paintings that feel like quiet stories, often borrowing from older art.
