The Oriental-themed art of Nikolai Roerikh is linked with a song (Klyuch da Zamok Slovar Moim (The Key to the Lock of my Words)) by Maksim Leonidov with Eastern modalities. As the song was co-written by Jagit Singh, it came by those naturally. I am no advocate of the Oriental mysticism that Roerikh taught, but, he is a part of the Russian artistic heritage, so, I did my best to create a respectful and non-polemical statement of his oeuvre. Needless to say, as an Orthodox Christian, I cannot agree with it.
