"Kalevipoeg Carrying the Boards" is a notable work by Estonian artist Oskar Kallis, created in the early 20th century. Oskar Kallis (1892–1918) was a prominent figure in the Estonian national art movement, often drawing inspiration from Estonian folklore, mythology, and the epic poem "Kalevipoeg." His style is characterized by a synthesis of Art Nouveau and National Romanticism, and he is celebrated for his role in shaping the visual interpretation of Estonian myths.

The painting "Kalevipoeg Carrying the Boards" depicts a scene from the Estonian national epic "Kalevipoeg," which is a foundational work of Estonian literature written by Friedrich Reinhold Kreutzwald. The epic tells the story of the mythical hero Kalevipoeg, the son of Kalev, who undertakes various adventures and quests. In this particular scene, Kallis captures the moment when the mighty Kalevipoeg is engaged in a herculean task, showcasing his extraordinary strength by carrying enormous wooden boards. This image is emblematic of the hero's physical prowess and his role as a builder of the nation, both literally and metaphorically.

Kallis's work is significant for its contribution to the Estonian national identity, especially during a time when the country was under Russian rule and seeking to assert its cultural independence. The artist's use of bold colors, dynamic composition, and attention to detail in traditional costumes and landscapes not only brings the epic tale to life but also serves as a visual assertion of Estonian heritage and pride.

"Kalevipoeg Carrying the Boards" is a testament to Oskar Kallis's artistic legacy and his dedication to celebrating Estonian folklore through art. His works, including this painting, have been influential in preserving and promoting Estonian culture and continue to be admired for their aesthetic beauty and cultural significance.
