CHARACTER 2, 2025 _{An Oil on Canvas, Post-Impressionism, Painting}

The painting depicts two elderly figures deeply engaged in discussion, one holding a book—a powerful symbol of wisdom and contemplation.

The artist’s expressive brushstrokes and a rich earthy palette of golden yellow, deep red, and muted beige create an atmosphere of intellectual curiosity and mystery. The figures’ facial expressions and body language suggest a moment of deep reflection, evoking a historical and philosophical depth reminiscent of classical teachings.

Dărângă, influenced by Romanian masters like Nicolae Grigorescu and Corneliu Baba, uses contrast and texture to bring out the depth of thought in the scene. Ideal for libraries, offices, study rooms, and galleries, this artwork is a timeless piece that encourages introspection and dialogue.
