About Entourage

The artwork titled “Entourage,” created by Nicholas Roerich in 1912, is a product of the Art Nouveau (Modern) movement and falls under the genre of design. It is currently housed in the Bakhrushin Theater Museum in Moscow, Russia.

In the artwork, a solitary figure is depicted, clad in medieval armor that suggests a historical or mythical context. The figure is adorned with a sleeveless, gold-toned tunic embellished with small circular motifs and secured by a belt at the waist. Over the tunic, the individual wears a red cloak that drapes elegantly over the shoulders, adding a sense of regality to the ensemble. In one hand, the figure holds a tall spear, while the other grasps an intricately adorned shield that features a metal design element protruding from its center. The helmet, which is pointed and dark, suggests a warrior of significant standing. The overall composition, though simple, evokes a strong sense of historical valor and cultural richness, aligned with the design aesthetics of the Art Nouveau movement.
