About Bekas

“Bekas,” created by artist Nicholas Roerich in 1893, is an exemplary piece of the Realism movement depicting animal subjects. The medium employed by the artist includes pencil on paper, which adds a delicate and refined touch to the artwork. This genre of animal painting showcases Roerich’s meticulous skill and his ability to capture lifelike representations with minimalist techniques.

The artwork features a detailed pencil sketch of a dog’s head. The animal’s fur is carefully rendered with soft, deliberate strokes, creating a realistic texture that conveys the thickness and flow of the fur. The dog’s face exhibits a peaceful, tranquil expression, with its eyes closed and its head slightly tilted. The simplicity of the background focuses attention on the animal’s profile and highlights the artist’s proficiency in capturing naturalistic detail with subtlety and precision.
