Portret de bărbat cu fes is a work by Mauriciu Löffler, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
This portrait shows a man in a dark, fur-lined coat with a high collar. He wears a bright red cap and a striped vest underneath. His hands are clasped in front of him, and he has a serious expression. The background is blurry, focusing all attention on the man’s face and clothes. The red cap stands out against the dark colors, making it the brightest part of the painting. Next, look up chiaroscuro to see how artists use light and shadow like this.
Mauriciu Löffler made small, detailed prints of everyday people from early 1900s Transylvania.
