Sfânta Parascheva is a 1856 unspecified by Pavel Zamfir, a Byzantine icon painting work, depicting Flower, held at National Museum of Transylvanian History.
This painting depicts a saint, likely a female figure, dressed in a red robe and a crown-like headpiece. She holds a cross in her right hand and her left hand is positioned in a gesture of prayer or blessing. The background is a deep blue, and the overall style suggests a religious or devotional artwork. The painting's style and the subject's attire suggest a traditional or folk art influence, possibly from Eastern Europe. The use of bold colors and simple composition adds to the painting's folk art feel.

Pavel Zamfir painted saints with the same calm he used to sketch his own hands in the margins of prayer books.
