Noaptea (interior cu trei femei) is a 1928 unspecified by Marcel Janco, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
This painting shows three nude women in a dimly lit room. Their bodies are painted in bold, flat shapes with bright colors—yellows, oranges, and blues—standing out against a dark background. One woman sits on a chair, another leans on a table, and the third stands near a window with a ship visible outside. The brushstrokes are thick and textured, almost like the paint was scraped on. The lighting is dramatic, with sharp contrasts between light and shadow. Next, look up impasto to see how artists use thick paint like this.
Marcel Janco painted still lifes and portraits in the early 20th century, blending bold colors and geometric shapes.
