"Windows of the house of XVII century" (1903) by Nicholas Roerich, a pastel drawing on paper, portrays two intricately carved doorways within the facade of a historical building. Roerich, known for his paintings of Russia and the Orient, captured the weathered stonework and architectural details of the XVII century structure. The depth of the arched openings and the contrasting light and shadow create a sense of grandeur and history. The piece is housed in the Nicholas Roerich Museum in New York City.
