He represented Post-Impressionism and Expressionism movements. The painter created an extensive gallery of portraits, featuring young children from infants to young kids. He also sketched for many contemporary, usually political and leftist magazines, such as Socialismul, Adevarul, Flacara, Hiena and Ramp. Nicolae began his career as a publisher of political cartoons and contributor of art criticism articles to Arta Romana. Later, Nicolae created frescos in several churches of Moldavia and also held the post of an art teacher. In 1916, Tonitza was drafted into the Army of Romanian Land Forces and fell prisoner to the Bulgarians during the Battle of Turtucaia. He was released in 1918. In 1921, Tonitza started to paint prototypes for a ceramics factory and organized a ceramics exhibition. The same year, he moved to Valenii de Munte and decided to cease contributing to the press. During that period, the painter developed his characteristic style and themes, both of which were determined by his experiences as a father. Also, at that time, Nicolae started to work as an editor of the art magazine Artele Frumoase. In 1922, the painter left for Transylvania, where he befriended Aurel Popp. By 1931, he divided his time between Bucharest and Constanta, having agreed to paint the walls of Saint George's Church in the latter city. Two years later, in 1933, Tonitza was appointed a chair of Fine Arts Academy in Iasi. During the last years of his life, Nicolae took part in several national exhibitions and World Fairs. He also painted his last works around Balchik. Alongside several other prominent cultural figures, Nicolae signed an appeal, leading to the creation of the Society for Maintaining Cultural Links between Romania and the Soviet Union in May 1935." --- SUBSCRIBE: www.youtube.com/c/LearnFromMasters?sub_confirmation=1 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/LearnFromMasters/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/learnfrommasters/ Contact: LearnFromMasters01@gmail.com LIST OF ARTISTS already posted on LearnFromMasters: https://goo.gl/hri4HE --- MUSIC: Surorile Osoianu - Trece-un nouras pe sus --- Thank you so much for your support! #LearnFromMasters #RomanianPainter #Expressionism #OnlineArtGallery #CollectionOfPaintings #ArtHistory #NicolaeTonitza
