Mama is an unspecified by Alexandru Ciucurencu, held at Brukenthal National Museum.
This painting shows a woman with a serious expression. She’s wearing a dark, textured coat and a dark head covering. Her hands rest in her lap, and the brushstrokes are thick and uneven, making the colors pop. The loose, rough style makes the face and clothing stand out against the soft purple and green background. The paint looks almost sculpted in places, giving it a tactile feel. Look up impasto next to see how this technique works.
Alexandru Ciucurencu painted scenes from everyday life and the human body in the mid-20th century.
