1935
From the collection of Bucharest Municipality Museum
Dominant colour
Tăietor de lemne is a 1935 by Max Hermann Maxy, depicting Character, held at Bucharest Municipality Museum.
This painting shows a man in a blue coat sitting on a log, holding an axe. Around him, three other people stand—one looks worried, another holds something small. The background is blurry, but the man’s face is sharp, with a slight smile. The colors are mostly dark, with the blue coat standing out. The brushstrokes are loose and uneven, like quick sketches. The man’s pose and the axe suggest he might be a woodcutter. The painting feels rough, almost like it was done fast. Look up Maxy, Max Hermann to see more of his work.
Max Hermann Maxy was a Romanian painter, art professor, scenographer, and professor of German-Jewish descent.
