Peisaj marin is a 1923 by Nicolae Tonitza, held at Art Museum of Constanta.
This painting shows a rough, textured scene of a seascape. Dark, jagged lines cut through the image like branches or waves, while patches of blue suggest water. The colors are muddy and uneven—greens, browns, and whites blend together in thick, uneven strokes. The brushwork looks heavy, almost like the paint was scraped on. It feels raw and unfinished, as if the artist was experimenting with texture. Look up impasto next to see how this technique works.
