Barca sub pod (Cișmigiu) is a work by Henri Visconte, depicting character, held at Bucharest Municipality Museum.
This painting shows a small stone bridge over a pond, with people walking across. The bridge has a simple arch and two pillars. Below, the water reflects the greenery and a red umbrella. Trees and bushes surround the scene, painted in quick, bright strokes. The brushwork is loose, almost sketchy, which makes the colors pop. The red umbrella stands out against the green and blue tones. If you like this style, look up *impasto* next.
