Towards in Shekhar Dzong # 13 Roerich N.K. (Part 3)

The composition presents a layered landscape dominated by mountainous forms. The artist has constructed a scene that eschews naturalistic representation in favor of a stylized and abstracted depiction of terrain. A series of peaks recede into the distance, each layer defined by distinct color palettes and angular shapes.
In the foreground, we observe a range of hills rendered primarily in shades of pink and reddish-brown. These forms are not smoothly contoured; instead, they appear as fractured planes, suggesting a ruggedness and geological complexity. A band of blue traverses these lower elevations, creating a visual break and hinting at a valley or shadowed area.
Further back, the landscape rises into higher peaks, transitioning to cooler tones – pale blues and whites – that suggest snow-capped summits. These distant mountains are less defined than those in the foreground, contributing to a sense of depth and atmospheric perspective. The artist has employed a limited color range, relying on variations within pinks, browns, blues, and whites to differentiate the layers.
The brushwork appears textured, with visible strokes that add physicality to the surface. This contributes to an overall impression of solidity and weight in the depicted landscape. There is a deliberate lack of detail; no vegetation or signs of human presence are included, which focuses attention on the raw power and scale of the natural environment.
The absence of a clear horizon line further emphasizes the monumental quality of the scene. The composition feels compressed, as if the viewer is confronted directly with the imposing mass of the mountains. This arrangement generates a feeling of awe and perhaps even a sense of isolation or remoteness. Subtly, the painting conveys an impression of resilience – the enduring nature of these geological formations over time.
