Portret de fată is a 1930 by Camil Ressu, held at Bucharest Municipality Museum.
This painting shows a woman sitting outdoors, leaning against a rough stone wall. She’s wearing a loose, dark top and a light skirt, with her hair pulled back. Behind her, a few bright yellow flowers stand out against a soft, blurred background. The artist used light and shadow to make her face and clothes look three-dimensional. The brushstrokes are loose, especially in the background. Look up chiaroscuro to see how this technique works in other paintings.
