“My dear mother was very wise in guiding our lives from the very beginning, she followed our interests and feelings. She never insisted on anything, never tried to persuade us to do anything, but always offered us exactly what we needed.”
“Our house was full of art works and wonderful books, as well as the collections of Nicholas. A new and bountiful world opened up in front of our eyes. We were always present during all the talks Nicholas and Helena held, and we listened to everything they said. They had a great influence on us.”
"Her life was burning like a live torch being an example of a wonderful world existence, the awareness of which will lead the mankind to new achievements, new discoveries."
Svetoslav Roerich
“Together we overcame all kinds of encumbrances. Difficulties turned into possibilities. I dedicated my books: ‘To Helena, my wife, my friend, companion and inspiration’. Each of her roles has been tested in the fires of life. In Saint Petersburg, in Scandinavia, in England, in the US and all over Asia – we worked, learned and expanded our minds. We created together; and not in vain was it said long time ago that creations should bear two names – a female and a male one.”
Nicholas Roerich

“Yuri Nikolaevich is the archetype of a truly inspired scientist and thinker, a man evincing supreme spiritual harmony.

Exhibition of paintings by Lola Lonli
"Shakti Dharma or the Path of Creativity of Female Energies"
Tribute to Svetoslav Roerich
The exhibition is dedicated to the 120th anniversary of the great Russian artist Svetoslav Nikolaevich Roerich, who captured in his paintings the majesty of the Himalayas and the unique spiritual beauty of their inhabitants, especially women. Inspired by S.N.Roerich's paintings and several journeys through the Himalayan valleys, Lola Lonli has created a series of paintings whose artistic and symbolic images celebrate the role of the feminine in evolutionary movement. Many of the paintings depict various Goddesses, Shakti, as well as Buddhist Tars in the national dress of the Himalayan peoples. Author emphasizes that by preserving the customs of respect for women and mothers, the Himalayan peoples give a second life to the tradition of honoring the feminine principle. Goddess Tripurasundari is depicted in the festive attire of the Gaddi people, the painting symbolizes the moment of creation of the world. The goddess is holding her traditional attributes.
The Himalayan Madonna in the attire of Kullu valley villagers (Rumsu, Naggar, etc.) holds a baby in her arms as a symbol of the new generation coming. The Mother of compassion in the attire of the Dards of Kargil mourns the troubles and sorrows of people, the ignorance that has entangled their minds and hearts. Buddhist Taras are depicted in the traditional clothes of Ladakh, Zanskar and the Brokpa people. Each of them is marked with a different color and has unique properties. For example, Green Tara is the creator and savior, Blue Tara is a strict judge, Red Tara is love and struggle with passions. Golden Tara is prayed for well- being, Orange Tara for health, and Red-Black Tara for protection. The male principle in the exhibition is symbolically represented by the images of Shiva-Rudra in the traditional attire of the Kullu Valley and young Krishna, who, reclining on the symbolic thousand-headed serpent Shesha, is thinking about the destiny of the world. And Rama and Sita in the robes of the Brokpa people of Ladakh is a symbol of eternal love. Helena Roerich wrote that "the summit of being cannot be without the feminine beginning." Lola Lonli uses female characters in her art to embody the highest energies or philosophical concepts. Female images penetrate the artist's creativity as the basis of her worldview, emphasizing the principle of balance between the feminine and masculine as fundamental to the development of a harmonious world.
