Sf. Ierarh Nicoale is a 1850 by Unknown, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
This image shows a faded drawing of a robed figure with a long beard. The person is holding a book in one hand and a scroll in the other, standing on a small platform. Their clothes look old and worn, with patches and a cross symbol on the chest. The background is dark, and the whole scene is framed by a rough, brown border that looks like it’s been handled a lot. The drawing’s worn edges suggest it’s been around for a long time. The simple, stiff style and faded colors give it a quiet, serious feel. If you like this kind of old religious art, check out cross-hatching next.
