Portret is a 1850 unspecified by Pio Sanquirico, depicting portrait, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
This painting shows a person wrapped in a bright red scarf and hat. Their face is serious, with dark hair falling over their shoulders. The background is dark and blurry, so the red stands out sharply. The artist used thick brushstrokes for the scarf, making it look almost textured. The face is softer, with smooth shading around the cheeks and forehead. Next, look up *impasto* to see how artists use paint thickness like this.
