Iacov din Rășinari is a Byzantine icon painting artist. 6 works are cataloged here, principally at Alba Iulia Orthodox Archdiocese.

Iacov din Rășinari kept a small wooden box under his bed for decades, filling it with drawings of saints so delicate they looked woven from candlelight. He never signed his work, but you can spot his hand by the way he made a halo feel like a flicker on water. His 1760 *Deisis*—Christ flanked by kneeling figures—hangs in Sibiu’s ASTRA Museum where the gold leaf still hums in the morning sun.
