Berta Gorgon is a 1869 unspecified by Mișu Popp, held at National Museum of Bukovina.
The painting depicts a woman with dark hair, dressed in a black top adorned with white lace around the collar. The background is a muted brown color. The overall atmosphere of the painting is somber and subdued. The woman's expression is serious, and her gaze is directed straight ahead. The artist's use of dark colors and muted tones creates a sense of solemnity and introspection. This painting is reminiscent of the works of artists who use chiaroscuro, a technique that utilizes strong contrasts between light and dark to create a sense of depth and volume.
