  • Janis Kalmite (1907-1996) Latvian/American, Oil on Canvas Abstract Expressionist
    Apr. 18, 2026

    Janis Kalmite (1907-1996) Latvian/American, Oil on Canvas Abstract Expressionist

    Est: $400 - $600

    Jānis KalmÄ«te (1907-1996) Latvian/American, Oil on Canvas Abstract Expressionist. Abstract oil painting features bold, expressive brushstrokes in a striking palette of red, black, and white. Signed and attributed verso. Framed. Size: 13 x 31 in.    Jānis KalmÄ«te (1907–1996) was a Latvian-born American painter best known for his poetic depictions of rural Latvian life and traditional farmsteads. Born in Latvia, he studied art in Riga before fleeing his homeland during World War II and eventually settling in the United States. Much of his work centers on the Latvian countryside—particularly barns, fields, and village scenes—rendered with textured surfaces and a warm, earthy palette that evoke memory and cultural identity. Through his paintings, KalmÄ«te preserved a vision of prewar Latvia, creating deeply nostalgic images that resonated strongly with the Latvian diaspora and established him as an important figure in Latvian émigré art.

    Janis Klamite Abstract Painting

    Est: $100 - $200

    Janis Kalmite (1907-1996) oil on canvas. Abstract which appears to be an abstract seascape . Measuring approx. 15" x 20" image size and contained in a tiered pine frame as shown. Janis Kalmite (1907-1996) was an expressionist painter and among the best-known artists in the Latvian post-World War II diaspora community. His name is associated with the development of a singular theme – the rija. Rijas, or threshing barns, were historically among the oldest structures on the traditional Latvian homestead. Throughout his half-century of exile from Latvia, Kalmīte transformed the rija into an artistic symbol for the persistence of Latvian ethnic culture in the face of invasion and occupation by foreign powers.
