1924
unspecified
From the collection of Octavian Moșescu Râmnicu Sărat Municipal Museum
Muncă în port is a 1924 unspecified by Petre Iorgulescu-Yor, held at Octavian Moșescu Râmnicu Sărat Municipal Museum.
This painting shows a big, old-fashioned ship docked at a port. The boat is dark blue with a red stripe near the bottom, and its sides have some rusty patches. You can see a few windows and a small cabin on top, plus ropes and masts sticking up. The background is blurry, with hints of buildings and a pale sky. The brushstrokes are thick and textured, almost like the paint was slapped on. The lighting makes the ship’s edges pop against the softer background. Next, check out *impasto* to see how artists use thick paint like this.
Petre Iorgulescu-Yor (24 December 1890, Râmnicu Sărat – 29 April 1939, Bucharest) was a Romanian Expressionist painter of Jewish and Greek ancestry.
