02_Maria Tanase: Ma dusei sa trec la Olt

Maria Tănase (25 September 1913 - 22 June 1963) was a Romanian singer of traditional and popular music. For the Romanians, and not only for them, she symbolizes what Edith Piaf and Amália Rodrigues are meaning for French, respectively Portuguese people, as well as for the Universal Culture. For those loving Fado this is a good sample of Romanian saudades named: dor! Nicolae Grigorescu (May 15, 1838—July 21, 1907) was one of the founders of modern Romanian painting. In the autumn of 1861, young Grigorescu left for Paris, where he studied at the École des Beaux-Arts. He also attended the workshop of Sébastien Cornu, where he had as a colleague Pierre-Auguste Renoir. Knowing his weaknesses, he concentrated drawing and composition. However, he soon left this workshop and, attracted by the artistic concepts of the Barbizon school, he left Paris for that village, where he became the associate of artists such as Jean-François Millet, Jean-Baptiste Camille Corot, Gustave Courbet and Théodore Rousseau. Under the influence of the movement, Grigorescu looked for new means of expression and followed the trend of en plein air painting, which was also important in Impressionism. As part of the Universal Exposition of Paris (1867), he contributed seven works. Then he exhibited at the Paris Salon of 1868 the painting Tânără ţigancă (Gypsy girl). Between 1873 and 1874 he traveled to Italy, Greece and Vienna. In 1877 he was called to accompany the Romanian Army as a "frontline painter" in the Romanian War of Independence. In 1889 his work was featured in the Universal Exhibition in Paris and at the Romanian Atheneum. From 1879 to 1890 he worked in France, especially in Vitré, Bretagne, and in his workshop in Paris. In 1890 he settled in Câmpina and started depicting pastoral themes, especially portraits of peasant girls, pictures of ox carts on dusty country roads and other landscapes. He was named honorary member of the Romanian Academy in 1899.
