It is interesting, that the special feeling of dependability and surety; with which the Ales's art radiates, touched also a known poet and anarchist Frantisek Gellner. He began to accept Ales's homeland as his own homeland. He expressed this in his poetic congratulation at the maestro's 60th birthday in 1912.

The evolution from the artistic attempts to abstract art tested the art of Mikolas Ales. The center of aesthetic evaluation shifted, the points of views changed, and at the same time, opinion changed considering what is artistically actual, what is aging, and what has lost its effectiveness. And the very plainest paintings of Mikolas Ales proved a point. They showed that his work was not based only on temporary values, but also on permanent values. The artistic avant-garde was coming back to Ales even after the boldest trips to seek the pure art.

The threatening era of German Nazism gave more reasons to these comebacks. In Ales's paintings was found hope and order in the middle of chaos, which threatened to uproot everything, upon which the specific values of the Czech nation were based. And at the same time, Ales's art helped to define values for further artistic work.
