Trandafiri is a 1900 unspecified by Gheorghe Popovici, held at Moldova National Museum Complex.
This painting shows a big vase of roses spilling over the edge. The flowers are mostly white and pink, with some deep red and purple blooms mixed in. Petals and leaves are scattered on the table around the vase, like they just fell off. The brushstrokes are thick, making the paint look almost textured. The artist used a lot of light and shadow to make the flowers pop. The dark background makes the colors of the roses stand out even more. If you like this style, look up impasto.
