Maria Grădișteanu is a 1850 unspecified by Gheorghe Tattarescu, held at Bucharest Municipality Museum.
This painting shows a woman in a dark red outfit with gold trim. Her collar is stiff and white, and she wears a dark hat with a slight sheen. The background is plain and dark, keeping focus on her face and clothing. The artist’s signature is faintly visible in the corner, but no other details are clear. The lighting highlights her face and hands, making them stand out against the shadows. Look up chiaroscuro to see how this strong light-and-shadow contrast works in other paintings.
