1920
From the collection of Bucharest Municipality Museum
Peisaj cu călăreți is a 1920 by Gheorghe Petrașcu, depicting Character, held at Bucharest Municipality Museum.
This painting shows two dark figures on horseback riding across an open, rolling field. The sky above them is bright but streaked with clouds, while the land below is patchy with hints of green and brown. The brushstrokes are loose and uneven, giving the scene a rough, textured look. The riders are small against the vast landscape, making the setting feel big and empty. The colors are muted, with the horses blending into the earthy tones around them. 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.
