Pajiște is a 1946 unspecified by Ion Țuculescu, held at Bucharest Municipality Museum.
This painting shows a wild, brushy landscape with a dark mountain looming in the center. The sky is a mix of thick blue and white clouds, while the bottom half has green grass and a few purple flowers. The paint is applied in rough, uneven strokes, making it look almost textured. The artist used a lot of thick paint, which stands out up close—you can almost feel the bumps. This technique is called *impasto*, where paint is laid on so heavily it creates a 3D effect. Look up impasto to see more examples of this bold, tactile style.
