Description
George Ștefănescu was born in 1914 in Plăinești and trained at the Academy of Fine Arts in Bucharest under Nicolae Dărăscu, whose emphasis on colour profoundly shaped his artistic outlook. He made his debut in 1936 with landscapes painted at Balcic and Vrancea, later consolidating his practice after the war through a rigorous chromatic vocabulary and a structural clarity that defined both his easel works and his scenographic activity.
Ștefănescu cultivated landscape as a central theme, often filtered through a refined attention to light and atmosphere, complemented by a keen interest in still life and compositional harmony. His studio, which also functioned as a collection of ceramics, icons, and folk furniture, reflected a broader preoccupation with material culture and the dialogue between tradition and modern creation. After settling in Germany in 1989, he continued to exhibit extensively, consolidating his position as an artist whose work is distinguisehed by a disciplined chromatic vision and a consistent exploration of pictorial structure.
