Flori în glastră is a 1939 by Gheorghe Petrașcu, held at Art Museum of Constanta.
This painting shows a simple scene: a white vase with a bouquet of flowers on a striped red-and-yellow cloth. The flowers are bright—white, yellow, and pink—but the brushstrokes are loose, almost messy. The background is dark and blurry, so all the focus stays on the vase and flowers. The artist used thick, visible strokes of paint, which makes the colors pop and the texture feel rough. It’s not a smooth, polished look—more like the paint was slapped on quickly. If you like this style, look up impasto next.
Gheorghe Petrașcu (Romanian pronunciation: ; 20 November 1872, Tecuci – 1 May 1949, Bucharest) was a Romanian painter.
