Casă la Nicorești is a 1907 by Gheorghe Petrașcu, depicting House, held at Ipotești Memorial - Mihai Eminescu National Center.
This painting shows a small house with a thatched roof and white walls. The building sits on a patch of grass with a dirt path in front. A red pole leans near the house, and the sky is a pale blue. The brushstrokes are thick, especially on the roof and ground, giving the scene a rough texture. The title *Casa la Nicorești* hints this might be a rural home, painted as it looks in everyday life. The artist used bold colors and visible brushwork to make the scene feel real. If you like this style, look up impasto to see how artists use thick paint for texture.
Gheorghe Petrașcu (Romanian pronunciation: ; 20 November 1872, Tecuci – 1 May 1949, Bucharest) was a Romanian painter.
