The artwork titled “Spring,” created by Nicholas Roerich in 1931, belongs to the Symbolism art movement and is a landscape genre piece. It is part of the “Kuluta” series.
In the artwork, the viewer is presented with a serene and ethereal landscape scene dominated by cool blue tones. The composition depicts a mountainous terrain with layers of distant peaks rendered in gradient shades of blue, creating a sense of depth and tranquility. The foreground features a darker silhouetted mountainside adorned with trees and what appears to be a modest structure on the left. The atmosphere is imbued with a calming, almost mystical quality, characterized by a soft gradation of colors that evokes the gentle awakening of spring in a remote mountainous region. The overall effect is both tranquil and majestic, reflecting the symbolic and spiritual essence that is characteristic of Roerich’s works.
