Vicarul apostolic Ștefan Ștefanovici Roska is a 1850 unspecified by Unknown, a Baroque work, held at Alba Iulia Roman Catholic Archdiocese.
This painting shows a man in a dark robe with red trim and gold chains. His collar has a cross hanging from it. The background is plain and dark, keeping all focus on him. The red stitching on his robe looks carefully placed, like it’s meant to show his rank. The painting feels simple but serious. Next, look up chiaroscuro to see how artists use light and shadow this way.
