Malda Muižule was born in 1937 in the family of a blacksmith. Graduated from Liepāja Applied Arts High School (1957). She continued her studies at the Department of Printmaking of the Latvian Academy of Arts, which she graduated in 1963 with a diploma thesis - etching "Rojas zvejnieki", thesis supervisor A. Apinis.
Participates in exhibitions since 1963. Member of the Union of Artists since 1966.
One of the most prominent etching masters in Latvia. Freely manages the etching technique in all its complexity, creates compositions directly on the metal plate. In the beginning, she worked in more linear etching technique ("Kuldīga", "Vecā Rīga", both 1967), but in the early 1970s, she was one of the first Latvian printmaking artists who began to intensively realize the specific possibilities of graphics in the use of color in complex multi-step etching, cultivating the variety of textures and colors. In the etchings of the 1980s, the intensity of color and the multiplicity of imagery increase, a deeper synthesis of ethnographic and world cultural impressions enters, the revelation of human feelings and natural processes in a unified artistic image becomes more complex. She has also developed the printing principles of the use of colors in the lithography technique. She has worked a lot in the watercolor technique, where the fragility of the drawing is combined with bright colors, great looseness of color. Also painted in oil technique. Worked in press and book graphics. Made cartoons, posters, artistic bookmarks. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
