Canal la Veneția is a 1909 unspecified by Gheorghe Petrașcu, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
This painting shows a bridge over a river, with buildings in the background. The brushstrokes are thick and rough, mixing earthy browns, blues, and greens. The water looks choppy, and the bridge has a simple arch shape. The artist used bold strokes to create texture, especially on the water and bridge. This style makes the scene feel alive and a little messy. If you like this style, look up impasto.
Gheorghe Petrașcu (Romanian pronunciation: ; 20 November 1872, Tecuci – 1 May 1949, Bucharest) was a Romanian painter.
