109. Peasant Girl with Yellow Kerchief

Nicolae Vermont developed a taste for realistic style - which he would display in most of his works - from his early education in Bavaria. His artistic mastery is particularly revealed in portraits and genre scenes. The social nature of his chosen subjects is conveyed through the balance of his plastic language. In his work, he seeks to achieve psychological effects through compositional organization and successively passes through the peculiarities of both German and French impressionism. Vermont focuses especially in portraits on outlining a psychological profile of his characters, but also on revealing social characteristics. His simple but confident line accurately records emotional states and expressions. The props that the artist presents to his models is closely in accordance with their psychology. Inheriting the artistic tradition from the master from Câmpina, Nicolae Vermont created a long series of portraits dedicated to rural women and girls. With their fragile and lively figures, his village girls are depicted in almost choreographic positions, with overflowing grace, and dressed in picturesque outfits. Parallel to the thematic cycle dedicated to the girls, Nicolae Vermont also focuses on rural women. If in the case of the former we encounter almost statuesque poses, colorful clothes and baskets full of flowers, in compositions with village girls we notice the artist renouncing the strictly decorative function of painting and catching his characters in the midst of housework or fieldwork. With a yellow headscarf and a colorful apron, the protagonist of this work, caught during a break, appears with her body tired and her face thoughtful. The artist borrows from the attitude and mindset of his model as well as from the landscape, the color scheme of which intermingles with the muse's clothing.
