About Bell Mountain

“Bell Mountain” is a noteworthy landscape painting by Nicholas Roerich, created in 1932. Rendered on canvas using tempera, this piece is an outstanding example of the Symbolism art movement. Measuring 47 x 80 cm, the artwork is housed in the State Museum of Oriental Art in Moscow, Russia.

The artwork depicts a majestic mountain range painted in muted hues, with surrounding peaks covered in snow, exuding a serene yet powerful presence. The use of tempera on canvas presents a slightly textured, matte finish enhancing the ethereal atmosphere of the landscape. The mountain range, enveloped in misty blues and whites, conveys a sense of tranquility and timelessness. Roerich’s mastery in Symbolism is evident in the harmonious blend of colors and the subtle yet profound representation of nature’s grandeur, suggesting deeper spiritual meanings behind the natural scenery.
