This book, expertly and abundantly illustrated and written with great dedication by Mai Levin, an art scientist, opens exciting pages of 1910 – 1930 innovative Estonian art, describing the art life back then and introducing to the reader artists and artworks that have been undeservedly unrecognised for decades. Although the research, which was the basis of this volume, began over half a century ago, the art market revived in the 1990-s has brought to light artworks, which enrich our notions of the distributions and development of modernism in Estonia.

To an art appreciator with good foreknowledge, this book offers both the joy of discovery and mind widening surprises; to a layman of art, it offers a lively and comprehensive picture of artists’ strivings and the diversity of the developments of art during that period.
