Vânat is a 1924 unspecified by Petre Iorgulescu-Yor, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
This painting shows a roasted pig on a platter, surrounded by a few simple items: a dark jug, a knife, and a cloth. The pig’s skin is crispy and golden, while the background is dark and blurry. The colors are mostly warm browns and whites, with a few muted blues and grays. The brushstrokes are thick and loose, giving the painting a rough, textured look. The lighting is uneven, making parts of the pig glow while others stay shadowy. This style is called *impasto*—when paint is laid on thick so you can almost feel the texture.
Petre Iorgulescu-Yor (24 December 1890, Râmnicu Sărat – 29 April 1939, Bucharest) was a Romanian Expressionist painter of Jewish and Greek ancestry.
