Himalayas (study) 1930

Nicholas Roerich's "Himalayas (study)" from 1930 is a study in blue hues. The painting depicts a sweeping landscape of snow-capped peaks, bathed in a cool, ethereal light. Roerich, a renowned artist and explorer, was captivated by the Himalayas, and this work is a testament to his fascination with their vast, majestic beauty. The use of vibrant blues, softened by subtle hints of silver and purple, creates a sense of serenity and awe. The painting invites the viewer to contemplate the grandeur of nature and the enduring power of the mountains.
