RE: A RUSSIAN MODERN MYSTIC - NICHOLAS ROERICH

Hi again Roger,

I did take a look yesterday and it looks great, and I hope to comment on it in a few minutes from now. Just wanted to tell you that I had to do some routine but urgent work that was pending solution.

Meanwhile, I would like to show (to you and any occassional visitor) another triptych by Nicholas Roerich that caught my eye both for its strong plastic appeal and mystic significance.


Nicholas Roerich - Joan of Arc. Triptych (1931, tempera on canvas)

Thank you,

Luis Miguel Goitizolo

Luis,

I am completely converted to this man's work.

The triptych is unique and the video touched all of my emotions. Beautiful.

Thank you so much for the original introduction.

Life is so short. How can we even touch upon the amount of beauty there is to see?

Roger

Miguel and Roger, I just had to stop by this beautiful forum. I will come back and watch the video. I wonder if the music is like the one in which I posted.

Thank you for all the lovely work you do here.

Love,

Sara

The subject of this Everest one fascinated me

This artist was so prolific wasn't he?

This is VERY different. Very beautiful.
I love the eastern influence coupled with the Art Noveau. This picture feels very modern.
I see why you love his work so much.
