1867
From the collection of Bucharest Municipality Museum
Fecioara cu Pruncul is a 1867 by Gheorghe Tattarescu, depicting Angel, held at Bucharest Municipality Museum.
This drawing shows a woman holding a small child, both seated. The paper is old and torn, with rough edges. The lines are simple but expressive, and the woman’s face has a calm, gentle look. The drawing uses thin, sketchy lines to build up the shapes. The paper itself looks worn, like it’s been handled a lot over time. Look up cross-hatching to see how artists create shading with lines.
Gheorghe Tattarescu (Romanian pronunciation: ; October 1818 – October 24, 1894) was a Romanian painter and a pioneer of neoclassicism in his country's modern painting.
