Isus Hristos Pantocrator is a 1795 by Simon din Bălgrad, a Romanticism work, depicting Composition, held at Alba Iulia Orthodox Archdiocese.
This painting depicts a man with a halo, dressed in a red robe and a green cloak. He holds a round object in his left hand, which may be a globe or a ball. The background of the painting is dark, with a white archway behind the man's head. The man's facial expression is serious, and his eyes seem to be looking directly at the viewer.

The painting is a beautiful example of religious art from the Romanticism movement. If you're interested in learning more about this style, you might want to look up the movement: Romanticism.
