Summary/Abstract: The visual artist Ion Sfeclă (19.11.1941-27.05.2020) created several valuable works in various techniques of graphic art and easel painting. In parallel with his creative activity, he worked as a teacher at the Republican College of Fine (Visual) Arts „Alexandru Plămădeală” in Chisinau. Participating in various exhibitions, creative camps, international and national, the artist Ion Sfeclă manifested himself as a talented author of thematic compositions, landscapes, still-lifes and portraits. Of the great expressive force are his watercolor landscapes and etchings, as well as the sketches of illustrations created in the same technique. The National Museum of Art of Moldova preserves the series of etching compositions dedicated to the Mihai Eminescu subject, dating from 1983, which can be analyzed as sketches of illustrations and those dedicated to the old city (Chisinau), from 1991. In creation the artist tended to approach philosophically the subjects chosen through associations, metaphors and symbols.
