Muncitorii forestieri is a 1926 unspecified by Max Hermann Maxy, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
This painting shows two figures sitting side by side, both wearing hats. The background is messy and busy, with lots of sharp angles and clashing colors—mostly yellows, browns, and greens. The brushstrokes are thick and uneven, almost like chunks of paint were slapped on the canvas. The two figures look like they’re in a crowded, chaotic space, but their faces are hard to read. The painting feels raw and energetic, with no smooth blends between colors or shapes. Next, look up impasto to see how thick paint like this is used.
Max Hermann Maxy was a Romanian painter, art professor, scenographer, and professor of German-Jewish descent.
