Manifestație (Piața Sf. Spiridon) is a 1917 unspecified by Aurel Vintilescu, depicting Character, held at Bucharest Municipality Museum.
This painting shows a dimly lit street scene at night. A row of buildings with flickering windows lines the left side, their walls rough and uneven. Shadows stretch long across the cobblestones, and a few people huddle in the dark, their faces barely visible. The sky above is deep blue, with a faint glow near the horizon. The artist uses thick, textured brushstrokes that make the scene feel raw and alive. The light from the windows cuts through the darkness, highlighting small patches of color. This painting’s style reminds you of *impasto*—where paint is laid on thickly to create texture.
Aurel Vintilescu carried a sketchbook everywhere, even on the back of his motorcycle, scribbling Iași street scenes between deliveries.
