About this work

This image shows four figures in bright colors against a green, grassy background. One person is falling off a horse, another stands in a yellow robe holding a staff, a third sits in a blue robe with a dark halo, and the fourth, a woman in blue, looks down. The scene includes flowers, a small fire, and a cart with large wheels. The falling man’s horse is tangled in a rope, and the word "Sfântul" is written at the top. This suggests a religious story, likely about a saint. Look up saint to see how these figures connect to Christian traditions.
