Sf. Teodor Tiron is a work by Petru din Topârcea, depicting Composition, held at Alba Iulia Orthodox Archdiocese.
This painting depicts a saintly figure, dressed in red and green robes, standing against a white background adorned with red stars. The saint holds a spear in one hand and a palm branch in the other, with a halo surrounding their head. A decorative border frames the image. The saint's attire and the palm branch suggest a connection to Christian iconography. The use of red and green colors may symbolize martyrdom and eternal life, respectively.
