Sfinții Petru și Pavel is a 1850 by Unknown, held at "Dimitrie Gusti" National Village Museum.
This painting shows two figures in bright red robes with green sashes, standing side by side. Both have serious faces and halos around their heads. The figure on the left holds a long white staff, while the one on the right holds a book. Between them is a third figure, smaller and dressed in a checkered robe, holding a golden object shaped like a cross. The background has a red curtain with a pattern of arches and writing in a script that looks old. The figures’ faces are simple, with flat colors and no shading. The painting feels very old and has a rough, hand-drawn look. If you like this style, check out the Museum of Ethnography for more pieces like it.
