Early Italian Art in the Works of Nicholas Roerich (1900s‐1910s)
View through CrossRef
In the works created by Nicholas Roerich in the 1900s –1910s various cultural influences were synthesized. These were conditioned by the consistent pattern of the development of Russian art as well as by the individual preferences of the artist. The artistic heritage of old Italy became one of the strongest influences on Roerich and was interpreted by him in a particular way. The article examines the factors that determined Roerich’s interest in Italian art of the Middle Ages and the Early Re-r naissance and analyzes the experience of his trips to Italy in 1901 and 1906. The study of the style and methods of old masters significantly enriched Roerich’s means of expression and helped to establish his mature style.
