Opening of a virtual tour of the public Museum named after N.K. Roerich

On the Day of Remembrance of Nikolai Konstantinovich, International Center-Museum named after N.K. Roerich presented to the attention of admirers of the Roerichs creativity the first stage of the Virtual Museum: a virtual tour of the museum exposition that existed before the International Center of the Roerichs was evicted from the Lopukhins estate and the paintings were seized in 2017.

“Next 2019, we will celebrate the 145th anniversary of the birth of the great artist. The International Center of the Roerichs (ICR) is preparing to celebrate this date with the creation of the N.K. Virtual Public Museum Roerich. The museum will remain faithful to the tradition of openness and accessibility: the heritage of the Roerichs will be presented in all its richness and diversity.

The purpose of creating a virtual Museum is not only to keep in memory the public Museum with its excellent exposure, but also to express confidence that one day the public Museum named after N.K. The Roerich will again be reborn to life in order to open its doors to all who wish to join the wonderful world of the Roerichs — our outstanding compatriots who worked for Russia and believed in its great future. ”, - reported in the Center of the Roerichs.

N.K. Roerich ended his earthly journey on December 13, 1947 in India, in the Kulu Valley. “A lot, a lot can be said about this real Ascetic on the field of Great Culture,” wrote Roerich Elena Ivanovna about Nikolai Konstantinovich in 1949. - I can say with confidence that so many people haven’t written so beautifully during their lifetime as about our beloved and Bright Driver. But still, the versatility of his work and the beauty of the entire inner being remain inexhaustible. "
