Sfântul Ioan Botezătorul și Arhanghelul Gavriil is a 1549 by Unknown, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
This painting shows two tall figures standing side by side. The one on the left wears a long, flowing robe with a hood, and his hands are open as if holding something. The figure on the right has wings, a long dress with gold trim, and holds a small object close to their chest. Notice how the wings on the right figure are drawn with careful, even strokes—almost like lines stacked together. This might be a way to create depth or texture without shading. Look up cross-hatching to see how artists use lines to build form.
