Additional info:
Nicolae Grigorescu noticed Gheorghe Petrașcu in college, helping him to obtain a scholarship at the Julian Academy in Paris. Alongside his studies in Paris, he had the opportunity to work in Bouguereau’s studio. Returning to Romania, he constantly organised solo exhibitions, having great feedback from critics and collectors. He exhibited regularly at the National Salons and at the Venice Biennale in several editions. Gheorghe Petrașcu was a pioneer for Romanian visual art, innovating with his technique similar to chiaroscuro, but giving life and materiality to his work through strong brushstrokes and unique contrasting colours.
