GRIGORESCU-VASILOVICI, Maria







CRITICAL REVIEW


        She is noticed for the naturalist portraits. In-between wars she sculpts portraits of several patients from the Psychiatry hospital, interest that may be coming from the creation of Ştefan Ionescu-Valbudea, who, a generation before, had been interested in similar subjects.
