Buddha the Winner 1925

"Buddha the Winner" (1925) by Nicholas Roerich depicts Buddha in a meditative pose within a cave setting. The painting, created in the artist's signature style, features a vibrant color palette with a focus on the interplay of light and shadow, particularly the glowing halo around Buddha. Roerich, a renowned artist and philosopher, was inspired by Eastern cultures, evident in this artwork. The painting is housed at the Roerich Museum in Moscow, Russia, and is a prime example of Roerich's unique artistic vision, combining mystical themes with his keen observation of nature.
