"Study of Mountains" is a 1931 watercolor painting by Nicholas Roerich, known for his mystical landscapes. The painting depicts a serene mountain range with a sliver of water at the base, bathed in a soft, ethereal light. The muted colors and hazy atmosphere create a sense of tranquility and spiritual resonance, characteristic of Roerich's style. The artist's fascination with the Himalayas and their symbolic significance is evident in this evocative work.
