Rūdolfs Blaumanis

Kārlis Rūdolfs Leonīds Blaumanis was a Latvian writer, journalist and playwright. He is a renowned writer in Latvian history and a master of realism. His best plays are set in the late 19th century Latvian countryside and explore within the context of the farmstead the universal themes of love and generational conflict (Indrāni), as well as the lighter side of rural social life. The building of a flat in Riga that he once lived in has been converted to a memorial museum named partially in his honor, the Janis Rozentāls and Rūdolfs Blaumanis museum.
