Cu cobilița la râu is a 1949 unspecified by Arthur Verona (Garguromin), held at Cotroceni National Museum.
This painting shows a person bent over by a riverbank. They’re wearing a loose white top and dark pants, and they’re holding a long stick or pole. The water is calm, and the background has trees with thick, dark trunks and greenish leaves. The brushstrokes are thick and visible, giving the scene a textured, almost rough look. The title *Cu cobilița la râu* suggests this might be about someone fishing or working near the river. The way the paint is applied—thick and layered—stands out, especially on the person’s clothes and the water’s surface. If you like this style, look up impasto to see how artists use thick paint for texture.
Arthur Verona (Garguromin) painted the Romanian countryside in the early 20th century—rivers, riders, forests, and quiet rooms.
