Nicholas roerich, a life devoted to art, beauty and peace
Marie-Agnès Domin
Résumé
Nicholas Roerich − philosopher, humanist and visionary artist who achieved international renown in the first half of the 20th century − left a prodigious artistic and cultural legacy to the world. Nehru, who in common with so many of his contemporaries was a great admirer of his lofty and noble works, said of him: "He is a creative genius". In this painstaking and highly engaging study, Marie-Agnès Domin gives an account of the remarkable journey of this inspired individual, shining a light on the multiple facets of his talents as − among other things − painter, writer, archaeologist and educator. A great traveller, Nicholas Roerich led a cultural and scientific expedition to the heart of Asia, and founded prestigious cultural institutions. The unceasing struggle he also conducted − over several decades − for peace and for the safeguarding of Humanity's cultural heritage, took on material form with the signing of a treaty that is still in force today. This book provides an opportunity to discover the unique work of Nicholas Roerich, which exudes a sense of eternity and is imbued with profound spirituality, bringing a message of Peace, Beauty and Unity.
