Fiesole is a 1921 unspecified by Corneliu Michăilescu, a Art Nouveau work, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
This painting shows a village on a hillside, with houses stacked up the slope. Trees with dark trunks and leafy branches frame the scene, while a winding road cuts through the foreground. The colors are mostly green, blue, and earthy browns, giving it a cool, misty feel. The artist used thick, visible brushstrokes that make the paint look almost textured. It’s like the scene was painted quickly, with bold strokes rather than smooth blending. Check out impasto to see how artists use thick paint like this.
Corneliu Michăilescu (1887–1965) was an artist, born in Bucharest.
