Research information
Between 1916 and 1919, during his travels through Dobrogea, Nicolae Dărăscu painted about 4-5 works dedicated to nomads and Turks. The settlements, as he himself titles them, are captured in edifying compositions, and the works introduce us to a picturesque oriental. Initiated in the village of Pașacîșla near Jurilovca, Tulcea, the small cycle was painted in the summer of 1916, only to paint a few more similar compositions after the First World War.
