From the collection of Moldova National Museum Complex
Nud de femeie is a 1923 unspecified by Nicolae Tonitza, held at Moldova National Museum Complex.
This painting shows a woman’s back and shoulders from behind. She’s sitting with her knees bent, her skin painted in soft, warm tones. The background looks like a blurry outdoor scene with green and brown colors. The way the light hits her skin makes it look smooth and three-dimensional. The brushstrokes are visible, especially on her back, giving it texture. Look up impasto to see how artists use thick paint like this.
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.
