About this work

This drawing shows a man standing by the Danube River. He wears simple clothes and a hat. The river flows behind him in quick, sketchy lines. Tattarescu often drew local people and places. He used fine lines to show details like the man’s face and the hat’s brim. The Danube looks almost like a shaky blue stripe. Try looking up more of Tattarescu, Gheorghe.
