About Kashmir

The artwork titled “Kashmir,” created by Nicholas Roerich in 1936, belongs to the Symbolism art movement. This painting falls under the genre of landscape art.

In the artwork, a serene panorama of the majestic Kashmir region is depicted. Utilizing a palette dominated by cooler hues, Roerich captures the ethereal beauty of the snow-capped mountains against a backdrop of gradient skies transitioning from teal to blue. The soft yet prominent delineation of the mountain peaks and the subtle contrasts between the shadows and illuminated areas breathe life into the scene. The application of pastel tones and meticulous attention to the varying depths of the mountainous terrain create an immersive visual experience akin to a poetic reverie evoked by nature’s splendour.
