Nanda Devi 1941

"Nanda Devi" is a 1941 painting by Russian artist Nicholas Roerich, known for his mystical and spiritual landscapes. The artwork depicts a dramatic mountain range, with the titular peak, Nanda Devi, towering over the others. Roerich's signature use of vibrant color and sweeping lines is evident in the painting, where a luminous white snow contrasts against a deep blue sky. This evocative landscape resonates with Roerich's interest in the Himalayas, and the spiritual significance he attributed to these natural wonders. The work exemplifies his distinctive "Roerich Style," characterized by its mystical quality and focus on the power of nature.
