About this work

This small drawing shows four figures standing around a bright orange cross. The cross has three circles on it—two red and one yellow—like flowers or wheels. The figures wear simple robes in warm colors: orange, green, and brown, with halos around their heads. Their faces are flat and calm, hands folded or holding small objects. The cross looks like a mix of a religious symbol and something more personal, maybe a family heirloom. The bright colors stand out against the dark frame, making it feel important. If you like this style, look up latin cross to see how it’s used in different cultures.
