Ruurd Elzer (1915 - 1995) was educated at the Minverva Academy in Groningen and was then taught by Jan Altink. Jan Altink played an important part in his artistic education and on his advice he submitted his work in 1940 to the Groningen art circle De Ploeg for assessment. In 1941 Ruurd Elzer became an official member of De Ploeg and settled permanently in Groningen. Ruurd Elzer mainly painted portraits and landscapes, which he painted with a recognizable loose brushstroke and colorful, clear palette. Since the early 1950s, his work has been purchased by, among others, the Nederlands Kunstverbond and the State.
