17. Gipsy Woman [1912]

Nicolae Vermont will develop a taste for realistic orientation - which he will manifest in the majority of his works - since the Bavarian schooldays. His artistic mastery is particularly evident in portraits and genre scenes. The social character of his topics is mediated by the balance of his plastic language. This work belongs to the maturity period when Nicolae Vermont had assimilated a multitude of techniques and currents and had already defined his own pictorial semantics. He is interested in the fate of people from the countryside, but he also depicts the urban life, tradesmen or workers. He illustrates the joy of holidays and of hora in the countryside, but he also captures the hypostasis of labour. Excellent drawer, he will find the aesthetic ideal for which to create and will masterfully render the gestures and attitudes of his models. In 1912, at the Romanian Athenaeum in Bucharest, a personal exhibition of Nicolae Vermont is organized. This exhibition presents numerous works dedicated to gipsy women, with their specific occupations, presented in the posture of the flower girl or in contemplative poses. The props the artist proposes to his models is strongly related to their psychology. Particularly in the portraits, Vermont will concentrate on outlining a psychological profile of his characters, but also on revealing social characteristics. The simple, definite line accurately records the feelings and expressions of the protagonists. Through the artistic inheritance from the master from Câmpina, Nicolae Vermont elaborates a long series of portraits dedicated to women from countryside and gipsy women. With tender and lively silhouettes, gipsy women are illustrated by the artist in almost choreographic postured, with an overflowing grace and endowed with picturesque and spectacular costumes. The seriality of the creations, truly homogenised, gives coherence to his work and remarkably mirrors the everyday platitude.
