Petru from Topârcea (also known as Petru Zugrav Topârcea, Petru Zugrav Popovici, Petru Zugrav) was a muralist and icon painter active in the last quarter of the eighteenth century. Originally from Topârcea (today part of Ocna Sibiului town, Sibiu County), he carried out his work in localities from the center and south of Transylvania. His style, of popular origin, is part of the post-brancovenesc tradition of the region, with clear influences from the mural art of southern Transylvania. Considering the proximity of Sibiu, it is plausible that his artistic training took place in one of the active artisan centers in this area. His icons stand out through meticulous execution, of fine miniaturist inspiration, in which decorativism plays a central role. Although he does not stand out with a rigorous design, his works impress through a warm and harmonious chromatic palette, balanced composition, and richness of ornamental details. A version of this icon is published in "Peasant painting on glass" by Iuliana and Dumitru Dancu, Bucharest, 1975, pos. 105.
