Sf. Evanghelist Marcu is an unspecified by Gheorghe Tattarescu, a Byzantine icon painting work, depicting John the Evangelist, held at Bucharest Municipality Museum.
This painting shows a man with a beard, wearing a blue robe, holding an open book. His right hand points to the page. The book looks like a Bible. The man’s face is calm but serious, with soft light on his cheek and dark shadows around his eyes. He’s one of four figures often shown together. Go see the others in the Museum of Ethnography.
