Scena de balet is a 1949 by Cornel Medrea, depicting Ballerina, held at Bucharest Municipality Museum.
This drawing shows a group of dancers in mid-leap, arms spread wide like wings. Their bodies twist in unison, creating a swirling pattern against a pale blue sky. Some faces are turned upward, others sideways, all caught in a moment of motion. The artist used soft, watery lines to suggest movement and light. The dancers’ poses look like they’re floating, almost weightless. Look up ballerina next to see how real dance positions compare.
Cornel Medrea made expressive drawings and sculptures rooted in early 20th-century Romanian art.
