Description
Born to a Jewish family, Iosif Iser was a painter who influenced Romanian culture and art history. Iser studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich and Paris, and later became a member of the Romanian Academy.
Unlike the early years of his career when he adopted a style inspired by Expressionism, in adulthood he changed his vision. After his travels in the East and the long time spent on the shores of the Black Sea, especially in Balchik, Iser changed his chromatic vision. For a long period, he portrayed the Tatars of Dobrogea and Balchik, and adapted his chromatics to the colours and light specific to that area. His palette became warmer, brighter and his brushwork techniques softened.
