Peisaj is a 1932 unspecified by Margareta Sterian, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
This painting shows a busy street scene with people walking, some standing in small groups. A white bus drives down a sloped road between tall buildings and trees. The sky is dark and moody, while the colors below are mostly green, brown, and muted blues. Notice how the artist used thick, textured brushstrokes for the trees and buildings—it gives the scene a rough, almost tangible feel. The people and objects look simplified, almost like cut-out shapes. Look up impasto to see how this technique works in other paintings.
Margareta Sterian’s paintings mix sharp lines with soft light, often putting herself or friends into quiet everyday scenes.
