About this work

This painting features two figures, each wearing a red robe and a red hat with a black band, standing on either side of a large yellow cross. The cross is adorned with green accents and has a red vertical beam with black spots. The background of the painting is white, with green leaves and red flowers scattered throughout. The words "OOSTANTIN" and "GUILANA" are written in black above the cross. The figures are depicted in a simple, folk-art style, with bold lines and bright colors. The overall effect is one of simplicity and devotion. The Museum of Ethnography is home to this painting.
