Nud culcat is a 1913 unspecified by Alexandru Carol Satmary, depicting Nude, held at Bucharest Municipality Museum.
This painting shows a reclining nude figure lying on a couch or bed. The background is a mix of dark greens and blues, with quick, loose brushstrokes. The figure’s skin is smooth and pale, contrasting with the bold, uneven colors around them. The artist used thick, visible paint strokes, especially on the couch and background. This gives the scene a rough, almost sketchy feel. Look up impasto to see how this technique works.
Alexandru Carol Satmary (1870–1933) was an artist, born in Bucharest.
