Înmormântare la Stigliano is a 1905 by Andrea Antonio Petroni, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
This painting shows a rocky hillside with a winding path. A group of people in simple clothes walk up the slope, some carrying bundles. The sky is pale and hazy, while the ground is dry with patches of green. A red cloth is draped over a rock near the bottom left. The brushstrokes are loose and quick, giving the scene a rough, natural feel. The colors are muted, blending earthy browns and grays with soft blues in the distance. Look up *impasto* to see how artists use thick paint for texture.
Andrea Petroni made one print we know of: *Înmormântare la Stigliano*, a black-and-white scene of a funeral procession winding through a small Italian village.
