The artwork, titled “Study of Mountains,” was created by Nicholas Roerich and belongs to the Symbolism art movement. It falls within the genre of landscape painting.
The artwork depicts a serene and majestic snow-capped mountain peak emerging prominently against an expansive, vivid blue sky. The layers of the mountain are masterfully rendered, capturing the ethereal quality of the snow and ice as they reflect light. Darker, more muted tones delineate the lower sections of the mountain, creating a striking contrast with the luminous, almost otherworldly upper reaches. The overall composition exudes a sense of tranquility and reverence for the natural world, inviting viewers to contemplate the sublime beauty of these highlands.
