Profil de fată is a work by Tincu Ion, depicting hair, held at Moldova National Museum Complex.
This painting shows a woman’s face turned slightly away, her profile sharp against a dark background. Her hair is pulled back loosely, with a few curls framing her face. She wears a light-colored collar over a deep red garment, and the brushstrokes are thick, almost textured. The dark background makes her skin and clothing stand out, with soft shadows blending into the edges. The painting looks old, with some wear visible on the canvas. Look up chiaroscuro to see how artists use light and shadow like this.
