Allsalu, Efraim. (1929 – 2006). Lyrical Still-Life (1995)

This remarkable piece, “Lyrical Still-Life (1995)” by Efraim Allsalu, is a beautiful oil on masonite painting that captures the essence of Allsalu’s unique style. Efraim Allsalu, one of Estonia’s great painters, spent most of his life in Tartu, Estonia. He began his artistic training in 1948 at the Tartu State Art Institute and later continued at the Estonian Academy of Arts. Returning to Tartu after his studies, Allsalu became a teacher, leaving an indelible mark on the art scene. This painting, signed lower right as E.Allsalu 95, reflects his deep connection to art and offers a chance to own a piece of Estonian cultural history.
