These are astonishing Miguel! So large and so detailed, he was indeed a great artist.

Thank you for showing these.

Dear Sara,

We are just beginning to scratch the surface with the number of works of Nicholas Roerich that I have been showing on this thread. A conservative estimate says he produced about 7,000 works among paintings and drawings, but others point to 9,000 or more. And with most of them he did not shy at detail. I just cannot figure out how he could find the time for such a great number of works, most of them of a great quality, and for such a big amount of detail.

So if I am to be thanked for anything, I believe it should be for facing the difficult task of putting aside many of those works to favor other, perhaps more characteristic ones. Where with other artists I would have liked to have a larger number of works to feature in the past, here I have been forced to sacrifice a lot of wonderful works of art due to their overabundance - how paradoxical and unfortunate! I would like to have a hundred more pages and all the time in the word to show them all, but unfortunately this is not possible and alas!, even this most special thread will have to end some day.

Love, Miguel

Dear Friends,

When I started this fascinating thread I strongly relied, for the visual aspect, on a quite unique website: The Estonian Roerich Society's Paintings Gallery, a site that displays Nicholas Roerich's artwork in great style - for the quality of its reproductions, not their size - and with criterion of completeness. And while I soon migrated to other websites in order to look for bigger reproductions to post, whatever the name of the works reproduced, I nonetheless managed to post a lot of paintings from the former: concretely, the most beautiful - in my opinion - among those presented from letters 'a' to 'l'. Because obeying to my innate sense of order, and compelled by the huge number of Nicholas Roerich's paintings included, I had decided to avail myself of the website's great sense of organization and follow the alphabetic order to facilitate things.

Now that the thread is about to close, I have decided to select a number of Roerich's works that have additionally caught my eye for their uniqueness or their great beauty and show them here for you to enjoy. They are from letters 'm' to 'z' and have not been previously posted. Most of them are gems in their own right, and I sincerely hope you like them.

Thank you,

Luis Miguel Goitizolo
