    Alexandra Pregel’s life and art reflect the turbulent history of the first half of the twentieth century. Born in 1907 in Finland to Russian parents in exile from Czarist Russia, she lived in Paris where she received her education at the Ecole Nationale Superieure des Arts Decoratifs. She fled to the United States following the outbreak of World War II. The cityscapes, still life, and other genres exhibited on the site represent the outcome of a lifelong painting career that span from the 1930s until her death in New York in 1984.

Alexandra Pregel had exhibited widely since 1933. Her paintings are displayed in various European museums and many private collections in France, U.S.A, Russia, and Israel.
