This painter made icons on the back of glass, a folk tradition from the Olt region. Their work *Sfântul Ilie* shows the prophet riding a fiery chariot pulled by four red winged horses across a cloudy sky. Below, the prophet Elisha receives Elijah’s mantle while plowing with oversized oxen. Bright reds, greens, and yellows pop against a white ground, with tiny star-like flowers along the bottom. Look for the carved wooden frame holding this scene together.
