Sf. Nicolae is a 1796 unspecified by Unknown, a Byzantine icon painting work, depicting Composition, held at Alba Iulia Orthodox Archdiocese.
This painting shows a bearded man in bright, flat colors sitting on a throne. He wears a crown, green and orange robes with white crosses, and holds a long book. The background is gold with scattered flowers and stars, and his feet rest on a blue base with clouds and small animals. The man’s face glows with a golden halo, and his hands are raised as if blessing. The painting feels stiff and symbolic, not realistic.
