Devassari Abuntu turns into stone 1906

"Devassari Abuntu turns into stone" is a painting by Nicholas Roerich from 1906. The painting depicts a woman, her face obscured, bending over in a desolate landscape. Her form is rendered in simplified, stylized lines against a background of rocky, barren terrain. This work is a captivating example of Roerich's early symbolist style, where he explored themes of nature, mythology, and the human condition through evocative imagery.
