Adormirea Maicii Domnului is a 1900 by Unknown, depicting nativity of jesus, held at Ethnographical Museum of Transylvania.
This drawing shows Mary lying down with angels above her. The artist used fine lines to shade the robes and faces. Mary’s body is simple and calm. The work feels old and quiet. It’s meant to help people pray. The lines are very precise but not flashy. If you like this, try looking up icons at the Museum of Ethnography.
