EDITORS COMMENTS
In this painting titled "St. Prokopius, 1914". Nicholas Roerich transports us to a serene landscape bathed in the warm hues of a breathtaking sunset. The artist's use of tempera on cardboard brings an ethereal quality to the scene, enhancing its mysterious and enchanting atmosphere. The focal point of the composition is St. Prokopius himself, depicted as a righteous figure standing on a boat with his arms raised in blessing. His presence exudes tranquility and spirituality, as if he possesses some divine connection to the natural world surrounding him. The river flows gently beneath St. Prokopius' feet, reflecting the vibrant colors of the sky above. Boats dotting the water add a touch of realism to this dreamlike setting - from small fishing boats to larger tugboats used for transport. Roerich's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, capturing not only the physical beauty but also imbuing it with symbolic meaning. This painting serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a spiritual representation of faith and benediction. Housed at the State Russian Museum in St. Petersburg, Russia, this print invites viewers into an evening filled with wonder and contemplation. Its timeless appeal continues to captivate audiences worldwide while reminding us of nature's inherent beauty and our connection to something greater than ourselves.
