Peisaj is a 1913 unspecified by Arthur Verona (Garguromin), depicting cloud, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
In this painting a rolling hill of muted green rises behind a small, stone cottage with a thatched roof, while a lone tree stands to the left. Arthur Verona, who signed the work as Garguromin, painted it in an unknown year, and scholars think the scene reflects his trips to rural Italy where he loved quiet landscapes. He applied thick layers of paint, a method called impasto, to give the hills a textured feel. If you want to see more, check out the Museum of Ethnography.
