Leo Michelson (1887-1978) was an Russian-American Artist. He attended the Imperial Academy in St. Petersburg, Russia and the University of Tartu in Estonia. The Russian Revolution that began in 1905 caused Michelson to leave Russia for Germany. In 1920 he was living in Paris and had established an international  reputation for his work. His work was shown in major exhibits throughout the Soviet Union, United States and Europe. Michelson said his inspiration was Titian who was one of the greatest 16th century Renaissance Painters. Leo Michelson passed away in 1978 while living in New York.
