Peisaj is a 1942 by Aramik Taribian, depicting house, held at Bucharest Municipality Museum.
This painting shows a narrow, wet street lined with old buildings. The colors are mostly dark blues, reds, and browns, with some bright yellows and whites peeking through. The brushstrokes are loose and quick, giving the scene a rough, almost sketchy feel. The buildings look worn, with some windows and doors barely visible. The street glistens like it’s been raining, and the sky is a pale blue with faint strokes. The overall mood feels quiet and a little lonely.
