About Winter landscape

“Winter Landscape,” created by Nicholas Roerich in 1918, is a significant work belonging to the Symbolism art movement. This landscape artwork, part of a private collection, exemplifies Roerich’s distinctive approach to conveying symbolist themes through natural scenery.

The artwork presents a serene and vast winter landscape dominated by rolling snow-covered hills and distant mountain peaks. The color palette consists mainly of cool tones including various shades of blues and purples, interspersed with subtle pinkish hues that evoke the tranquil and ethereal quality of a winter scene. The sky is painted in soft pastel hues, enhancing the dreamlike atmosphere of the composition. The undulating forms of the landscape, combined with the serene colors, create a scene that is both calm and majestic, characteristic of Roerich’s symbolic and meditative approach to nature.
