FIUL ARTISTULUI is a 1935 by Alexandru Phoebus, depicting Necktie, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
A boy in a blue shirt and tie sits barefoot in a wooden chair, holding a marionette with a sad face. Behind him, the sky is painted in soft blues and greens with floating clouds. The chair looks sturdy, and the boy’s legs dangle over the armrest. The marionette’s strings are visible, suggesting it’s being controlled. The painting’s colors are bright but slightly faded, giving it a dreamy look. Next, check out chiaroscuro to see how light and shadow create mood in paintings.
Alexandru Phoebus (1899–1954) was an artist, born in Bucharest.
