Tatăl pictorului citind is a 1869 by Mișu Popp, held at Brukenthal National Museum.
This painting shows an older man with a long white beard, reading a book. He is wearing a dark jacket over a white shirt, and his left hand holds a book open on a table in front of him. The man's face is focused on the book, and his right hand holds a quill pen. The background of the painting is dark, which helps to highlight the man's face and the book. The painting is a print, and the artist's use of chiaroscuro creates a sense of depth and contrast. The artist who created this work is Popp, Mișu.
