Icoaiv v is a work by Tămaș Petru, depicting saint, held at "Dimitrie Gusti" National Village Museum.
This drawing shows a bearded man with a dark halo, holding a dark sphere in one hand and raising the other as if blessing. Above him is a banner with strange letters and numbers. To the right, a robed figure with a halo looks down, holding a circular object with a cross pattern. The background is packed with bright colors—reds, blues, greens—and lots of small star shapes scattered around. The banner’s writing looks like a mix of letters and numbers, possibly a code or name. The robed figure’s circular object might be a window or a symbolic disk. Look up stippling to see how tiny dots create shading in art.
