This painting, titled Sfinții Gheorghe și Dumitru, is divided into two panels. The left panel shows a saint on horseback, holding a cross and spearing a dragon. A figure in a long robe stands beside them, waving. The right panel depicts another saint on horseback, also holding a cross, with a fallen figure at their feet. The saints wear red robes with halos, and the backgrounds feature a building and a blue sky. The painting's style is reminiscent of medieval art. The artist, Ioan Pop de la Făgăraș, was a skilled painter, and this work is a great example of his skill. To learn more about the artist's techniques and style, look up Ioan Pop de la Făgăraș.
