The artwork, titled “Study to ‘Krishna’,” was created by Nicholas Roerich in 1933. Part of the Symbolism art movement, this work falls under the genre of sketches and studies.
In the artwork, a serene landscape unfolds featuring a mountainous terrain at its core. The prominent mountains in the background are depicted in serene hues of blue and purple, evoking a sense of tranquility and distance. In the foreground, delicate, almost ethereal trees stand tall. Their branches, rendered in soft, pastel shades of white and pink, contrast gently against the darker hues of the mountains, lending the image a dreamlike quality. The portrayal of the landscape captures a meditative and harmonious ambiance, characteristic of Roerich’s symbolic approach to nature and spirituality.
