Femeie în peisaj is a 1945 by Camil Ressu, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
This painting shows a woman sitting under a tree. She’s wearing a light blue shirt and a dark hat, holding something in her lap. The background has thick, dark trunks and bright patches of yellow and green, with a blue sky and fluffy white clouds. The brushstrokes are loose and visible, giving the scene a rough, textured look. The colors feel bold but slightly faded, like the painting has aged. Look up impasto next to see how artists use thick paint like this.
Camil Ressu was a Romanian painter and academic, one of the most significant art figures of Romania.
