Mihail și Gavril is a 1850 by Unknown, held at Satu Mare County Museum.
This painting shows two tall figures standing side by side, both wearing bright red robes with gold trim. Their faces are pale with simple, serious expressions, and they each hold an object—a staff with leaves and a book-like shape with a cross on top. The background is a mix of blue, green, and gold, with a strange eye-like shape floating above them. The figures look like they’re dressed for a special role, maybe something religious or important. The colors are bold and flat, with no shading to make them look real. If you like this style, check out cross-hatching next.
