Gospodărie țărănească is a 1949 by Rudolf Schweitzer-Cumpăna, held at Cotroceni National Museum.
This painting shows a rough, textured scene of a rural farmhouse nestled into a hillside. The brushstrokes are thick and uneven, with patches of white, brown, and dark green blending together. A wooden fence and a few trees frame the house, which sits under a cloudy sky. The painting feels raw and unfinished, almost like a quick sketch left to dry. The thick paint suggests the artist might have used a technique where paint is laid on heavily. Look up impasto to see how this style works.
