15. Icon on glass, "Holy Trinity (Coronation of the Mother of God)", attributed to the painter Nicolae Oancea from Vale, first half of the 19th century.

Depicted in the New Testament Western version, seated on cloud thrones, the composition includes Jesus, with the large cross of the Crucifixion leaning on his right shoulder, holding together with God the Father a crown above Mary's head, kneeling and holding a flower in hand. From the glory of heaven, the Holy Spirit, in the form of a dove, sends rays towards the Virgin. Specific for the Oancea family workshop, is the replacement of the color background with silver foil, the color scheme reduced to an extreme but balanced and harmonious (on a silver background tones of green and ochre and burnt shade). Condition: relatively good, it has a missing corner in the lower left and three transverse cracks.
