| | Jekabs Kazaks |
 | | Early in the career, he was influenced by Impressionism and later became significantly impressed by the West European old masters and modern French painters, especially Andre Derain. |
 | | Among Kazaks' major works are those reflecting the everyday life of refugees. |
 | | Kazaks adopted elements of early Latvian Modernism of the first decade of the 20th century and transformed them into an entirely personal style, which is characterized by expressiveness, simplicity, synthesis and even distortion of forms. |
