Lecția de dans is a 1964 by Max Hermann Maxy, depicting character, held at Bucharest Municipality Museum.
This painting shows three people inside a room. The colors are bright and flat, with bold blocks of red, blue, green, and yellow. One person stands holding a stick, another sits with their hands folded, and the third leans in toward them. The shapes are sharp and angular, not smooth. The woman in the middle looks like she’s teaching the others something. The room feels cramped, with walls pressing in close. The colors don’t mix—they’re all separate, like puzzle pieces.
