Landscape: Galatsi is a 1956 unspecified by Tsar Kostas, held at Athens School of Fine Arts.
This painting shows a person sitting on a bench in an open, brushy landscape. Tall, dark trees line the scene, and the background has rolling hills with patches of green and brown. The colors are earthy—greens, yellows, and muted blues—with some areas looking rough and others smoother. The brushstrokes are thick in spots, giving the painting a textured feel, especially near the trees and ground. The person’s face is blurred, almost like a quick sketch. Look up impasto next to see how thick paint like this is used.
