Description

Theodor Pallady attended the Polytechnic University in Dresda, where he also took private drawing lessons. His talent was recognised in Germany and he was advised to go to Paris.  He enrolled at the Academy of Fine Art in Paris and studied in Gustave Moreau’s studio with Henri Matisse and Georges Rouault. In Paris he had numerous solo exhibitions, and from 1924 to 1942 he participated in the Venice Biennale. The Theodor Pallady museum in Bucharest was set in the Melik House (the oldest house in Bucharest).

The art of Theodor Pallady is inspired by his friendship with fellow French artists, especially with Henri Matisse. A considerable part of Pallady’s work is represented by still lifes. Through the representation of static nature, he renders not only a segment of his privacy, but also details of the daily life of the society at that time.
