Nicholas Roerich Museum, Art museum in Upper West Side, Manhattan, US.
The Nicholas Roerich Museum occupies a four-story townhouse and presents around 150 paintings by the Russian-born artist. The collection focuses on mountain landscapes and displays his broad artistic range across three exhibition levels.
The artist originally came from Russia and later emigrated to the Himalayas, where he devoted himself to a spiritual mission. The museum itself was founded in 1923 to preserve his artistic legacy and philosophical ideas.
The museum displays works by an artist who devoted himself to Eastern philosophy and spiritual themes. His paintings reflect a deep connection to mountain and natural landscapes that create a contemplative experience for many who visit.
The museum is open on weekday afternoons and stays open slightly longer on weekends. Set aside time to walk through the three exhibition levels and enjoy the calm setting of the townhouse in this neighborhood.
The building stands next to the Schinasi Mansion, the only remaining privately owned free-standing residence in Manhattan. This architectural rarity makes the area around the museum a distinctive corner of urban history.
