Title
Greek Orthodox Monk
Artist
ITI Ion Vincent Danu
Medium
Painting - Acylics
Description
A portrait of an errant greek-orthodox Monk I've met in Saliste, a proud Transylvanian village near my native city of Sibiu. He was one of those simili-franciscan monks that ask for people's mercy for their monastery
and then for them...Some call them "crazy after Jesus" monks and this one's sincere, total belief was touching and amazing...A special kind of human beings you can still find, maybe, in places like Greece, India, and, well, Romania...Makes me homesick and nostalgic for my old country...So many memories...
