Interior de pădure is a 1955 by Rudolf Schweitzer-Cumpăna, depicting forest, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
This painting shows a forest scene with tall, thin trees painted in loose, brushy strokes. The colors are mostly green, brown, and yellow, with some blue and orange patches. Light filters through the trees, leaving some areas brighter than others. The artist’s signature reads *Schweitzer-Cumpăna* and the date is *1955*, written in the corner. The painting feels quick and sketchy, like a snapshot of nature rather than a polished scene. Look up *chiaroscuro* next to see how artists use light and shadow.
