Arhanghelii Mihail și Gavriil is a work by Savu Poienaru, depicting Composition, held at Alba Iulia Orthodox Archdiocese.
This painting shows two winged figures standing side by side. Both wear long robes in deep red and gold, with halos around their heads. They hold staffs and stand against a gold background with cloud-like shapes above them. The colors are faded but still stand out, especially the red and blue details in their clothing. Notice how the figures are almost identical in pose and size, creating a sense of balance. The gold background and halos suggest they might be important religious or symbolic figures. Check out more about composition to see how artists use balance in their work.
Savu Poienaru left behind a small set of religious drawings and paintings from the early 1800s.
