Simion Poienaru — Paintings, Biography & Famous Works

Iisus Hristos Mare Arhiereu și Învățător

Simion Poienaru is a Romanticism artist. 5 works are cataloged here, principally at Alba Iulia Unification National Museum.

Simion Poienaru made religious paintings and drawings that feel like windows into old village life. You’ll find his 1834 drawing “Învierea lui Iisus, cu 12 scene de praznic” packed with tiny scenes of Jesus rising, while his painting “Iisus Hristos Mare Arhiereu și Învățător” shows Christ dressed in priestly robes. His pencil saints—like “Sf. Paraschiva” and “Sf. Nicolae”—have gentle, lined faces that look worn but kind. Next, tap the drawing called “Modehipu” to see more of his work.
