The 40s represent in Țuculescu's work a rich period in his evolution towards the beginning of abstraction, represented, in its turn, by the folk period. Landscapes of Bucharest or from the surroundings of Mangalia, the works painted in this period do not leave the figurative, but start from reality, so that through subtle syntheses, they can take the road of abstraction. In 1945 Ţuculescu was in Bucharest, the end of the war found him deeply troubled - from 1943 to 1945 he could not paint, being deployed and then mobilised and sent to the battle front as a doctor. The stage of creation before mobilisation was already a mature one, being coagulated around so-called "rapeseed fields". These appear at the same time with the series of night paintings by a profound Expressionist spirit and thus the period 1940-1943 is individualised coherently in the continuation of the Greek period. There is a relatively paradoxical formulation of the visual, which is now loaded with a certain narrativism of the image. The Expressionist character translates into tiny motifs that appear integrated into a realistic complex, the atmosphere being charged with a certain decorativeness. The element that tones down the period '43 -'46 is precisely the lack of emotional involvement on the part of Ţuculescu, who still cannot access the deepest levels of imagination. Of course this oneiric release will be grounded from 1947 onwards, when his well-known "folkloric" period begins. Starting from the same atmosphere that we can find in the "Rapeseed Fields", the landscape is based on the same type of backbone, the land/sky ratio being modulated by the depth of the horizon. The landscape is coordinated according to Cézanne’s principles of construction, and its visual saturation is achieved by designing a coherent pictorial register. The image is filled with vitality with a creative mobilisation of the artist, recreating a double perception of reality, through the sense of vision and its interiorised reception. Through the skilful use of black, in outlines or in matter, Ţuculescu succeeds in impressing movement and impetus to the whole composition, the eye begins to feel the materiality of the vegetation, the viewer feels the sky "moving". In a contradiction of value, our landscape is antagonistically set in the dark period, the image being loaded with optimism through a warm chromatic register. The fact that the painter focuses on the great expanse of blue gives an argument to validate the idea of a relaxed speech, but equally powerful and expressive. The overall vision is coordinated by a spiritualisation of the motif extracted from nature, thus susceptible to a subjective interpretation.
