And we labor 1922

"And we labor" (1922) by Nicholas Roerich depicts a serene landscape with figures carrying buckets, likely for water. The painting's golden hues evoke a sense of tranquility and the cycle of daily life. A distant fortress stands against a backdrop of mountains and a winding river, suggesting the importance of community and collective work. This piece, now housed in the Roerich Museum in Moscow, reflects Roerich's interest in exploring themes of nature, spirituality, and cultural heritage.
