St Mercurius of Smolensk — Nicholas Roerich

Nicholas Roerich’s St Mercurius of Smolensk, dated 1919, honours the revered warrior saint and legendary protector associated with the Russian city of Smolensk. Created with Roerich’s distinctive Symbolist vision, the composition conveys spiritual resolve, heroic dignity, and a solemn devotional atmosphere. Its stylised forms and expressive colour reflect the artist’s enduring engagement with sacred history, legend, and the spiritual heritage of medieval Russia. This museum-inspired reproduction preserves the work’s contemplative power and its evocative union of faith and valour. Printed as a premium matte fine-art print on 200 gsm paper, it brings a distinguished image of sainthood and sacred courage into spaces for reflection, prayer, and appreciation of religious art.

Our museum-inspired reproductions are printed on premium 200 gsm matte paper, with edge-to-edge artwork and supplied unframed.

To prepare selected historical artworks for fine-art printing, we digitally enhance images where necessary, including adjustments to brightness, contrast and colour balance. These refinements are intended to improve print reproduction while respecting the character of the original artwork. Colours and tonal values may therefore differ from the original painting.
