In terms of the modern school of painting becoming process, Theodor Aman’s mature artistic experience brings new trends of creation. Based on religious and mythological subjects, portraits, social scenes captured in the Romanian village, city scenes and landscapes, the artist Aman will become an authentic chronicler of his time, a chronicler using his brush to mirror realistic aspects of the society he was part of. As a landscape painter, he would be interested in the romantic and documentary picturesque, as well as in issues such as the suggestion of atmosphere and light, rendered by the artist through eclairage effects, brushstroke liberties and luminous chromatics.
