Sf. Nicolae

About this work

This is a faded drawing of a bearded man in old-fashioned clothes. His face is round, with a serious expression and a small mustache. He’s wearing a robe with a cross on it and holding a book in one hand. The background is dark, and the edges of the painting look worn. The name "Sf. Nicolae" is written at the top, which means this is likely a religious figure. The painting has a simple, flat style with no shadows or depth. Look up cross-hatching to see how artists create shading with lines.
