Violonistul (Grigore Drăgoescu) is a 1930 by Eustațiu Stoenescu, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
This painting shows an older man in a white shirt and vest, holding a violin case. His glasses sit on his nose, and his expression is calm but focused. The background is dark, making his face and hands stand out. The brushstrokes are loose, especially on his clothing and the violin case, giving it a slightly rough texture. This might be *impasto*, where paint is laid on thickly. Look up technique: impasto to see how artists use thick paint for texture.
Eustațiu Stoenescu (Craiova, 1884-New York City, 1957) was a Romanian painter principally known for his portraiture.
