Thoughts on Painting

Vlaho Bukovac

Sažetak

Vlaho Bukovac is a highly regarded Croatian painter. He was an honourable member of the Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts, and his works created in Zagreb, Prague, Paris, and London are among the foundational European impressionist works of the early 20th century. He published his thoughts on the essence of painting in his autobiography My Life (Moj život), published in Zagreb in 1918. On the basis of his descriptions of his thoughts on his conception of the painting Gundulić’s Dream (on the gala curtain of the Croatian National Theatre in Zagreb) and portraits of his contemporaries, he concludes that the sketch is the foundation of both sculpture and painting.
