The artwork titled “Evening,” created by artist Nicholas Roerich in 1939, is a part of the Symbolism art movement and belongs to the landscape genre.
The artwork portrays a serene landscape dominated by towering, rugged mountains bathed in the deep, tranquil hues of twilight. The mountains are rendered in varying shades of blue, creating a sense of depth and grandeur, while their sharp, angular peaks contrast dramatically with the soft, warm tones of the evening sky. The sky is painted in luminous oranges and purples, suggesting the fading light of the setting sun. The overall effect is both tranquil and imposing, capturing the sublime essence of nature in transition between day and night.
