1939
From the collection of National Museum of Art of Romania
Dominant colour
Natură moartă is a 1939 by Ion Țuculescu, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
This painting shows a dark table with bright objects on it. There’s a greenish-yellow jar on the left, a blue bottle on the right, and a bunch of red flowers in the middle. A yellow lemon and a red apple sit near the flowers. The brushstrokes are thick, almost messy, with lots of dark blue and green in the background. The bright colors stand out against the dark table, making everything look bold. The flowers are painted in thick, uneven strokes, giving them a rough texture. If you like this style, look up impasto next.
Ion Țuculescu was a Romanian expressionist and abstract oil painter, although professionally he worked as a biologist and physician.
