From Kurul to Karakoram range 1926

"From Kurul to Karakoram range" is a 1926 oil painting by Nicholas Roerich, depicting the majestic Karakoram mountain range. The painting features a striking contrast between the vast, snow-capped peaks and the desolate, barren landscape below. Roerich's signature style of bold brushstrokes and simplified forms imbues the scene with a sense of grandeur and tranquility. This work is a testament to Roerich's fascination with the Himalayas, a region he explored extensively. His landscape paintings often served as a visual record of his travels and a celebration of the natural beauty of the world.
