Femeie în fotoliu is a 1943 unspecified by Iosif Iser, a Realism work, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
A woman sits in a chair, her arms crossed over her chest. She’s wearing a loose, dark purple top with a white collar and a necklace. Her dark hair falls around her shoulders, and the background is a soft, warm blur. The brushstrokes on her skin and clothes look thick and textured, like the paint was applied with a knife or heavy brush. The painting feels cozy but also a little rough around the edges. The colors are warm—golden skin, purple fabric—and the lighting makes her face stand out against the dimmer background. If you like this style, look up impasto next.
