Clovn (arlechin) is a 1938 unspecified by Iosif Iser, held at Art Museum of Constanta.
This painting shows a clown in a colorful diamond-patterned costume, sitting on a wooden chair. The background is plain and dark, which makes the bright colors pop. His face is painted white with a faint smile. The clown looks tired but still tries to smile. The artist used thick paint in spots, so the costume looks bumpy and real. It’s not smooth like most paintings. See how the paint is thick in places? That’s called impasto. Look up impasto next.
