This hand-painted wooden mirror can make a thoughtful gift for someone who cherishes art, tradition, and beauty.
Painted in vibrant colors, in the distinctive style of folk artist Ana Drăgan, this original, hand-made painting illustrates the traditional legend "Birth of the Fireflies". The tempera painting is varnished, and the inner mirror measures 9x9 cm.
When Archangel Gabriel locked all the devils into hell, a naughty little devil managed to escape and mix with the legions of angels. He painted his face white and his cheeks rosy, so he'd be taken as an angel. But St. Peter caught the trick and threw the devil by its tail straight to earth. His fall was so fast, that when he hit the ground he smashed into little glowy pieces that we now call "fireflies".
