Minaret is a 1927 by Alexandru Carol Satmary, held at Bucharest Municipality Museum.
This painting shows a tall, weathered minaret next to a faded building with peeling red and yellow walls. The sky is a soft blue, and the ground looks uneven, with a few scattered stones. In the foreground, a dark shape—maybe a dog or cat—sits near the base of the minaret. The brushstrokes are loose, giving the scene a rough, sketchy feel. The colors are muted, like old walls catching the light. If you like this style, look up impasto next.
