Painter Vladimir Zamfirescu has died on Monday evening, aged 84. He will be buried on Thursday at the Bellu Catholic Cemetery. "The National Museum of Romanian Literature (MNLR) with great sadness announces the demise on June 1, 2020, of painter Vladimir Zamfirescu, a great personality of the Romanian and European contemporary art," reads a post on the MNLR Website.

In an interview to AGERPRES under 'MY CITY, BUCHAREST' project, painter Zamfir Dumitrescu says that if possible, he would rather choose to live in the yesteryear's Bucharest because of the somehow romantic atmosphere of those times.
