The artwork titled “Rohtang Pass” was created by the artist Nicholas Roerich in 1931. This piece belongs to the Symbolism art movement and is classified under the landscape genre. It is part of the “Lahaul” series.
In the artwork, a serene landscape of snow-covered mountains is depicted. The majestic peaks, rendered in cool shades of blue and white, rise sharply against the sky, evoking a sense of tranquility and grandeur. The composition plays with light and shadow, accentuating the rugged texture of the mountainous terrain. The sky, painted in soft hues of blue, adds to the calm and ethereal atmosphere of the scene. Roerich’s masterful brushwork and his use of subtle, yet striking colors, effectively capture the sublime beauty of the Rohtang Pass.
