1936
From the collection of Ipotești Memorial - Mihai Eminescu National Center
Flori is a 1936 by Nicolae Tonitza, depicting Flower, held at Ipotești Memorial - Mihai Eminescu National Center.
This painting shows a messy, colorful tangle of branches and flowers. The colors are thick and rough—yellows, reds, and purples smeared together like they were slapped on fast. The brushstrokes are heavy, almost like the paint was scraped or dabbed on, leaving texture everywhere. The flowers look wild, not neat or posed. The background is a mix of gray and brown, blending into the branches like they’re part of the same rough mess. If you like this wild, textured style, look up impasto.
Nicolae Tonitza was a Romanian painter, engraver, lithographer, journalist and art critic. Drawing inspiration from Post-Impressionism and Expressionism, he had a major role in introducing modernist guidelines to local art.
