THE POLITICAL COMMITMENTS AND ARTISTIC WORK OF YOUNG MEŠTROVIĆ
Norka Machiedo Mladinić

Sažetak
The sculptures of the “Kosovo cycle” came into being during the period 1908-1914 – the period before the First World War, a time of great uncertainty: the yearning for Croatian independence from the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy and the formation of Yugoslavia. Due to their sharp expression of nationalism they stirred a great deal of interest at their 1910 exhibition in Zagreb under the slogan ‘In Spite of these unheroic times’ and on the occasion of his first international awards in sculpture at the Rome exhibition in 1911.
They are only a small part of Meštrović’s entire body of work, though they were intended to form an integral part of the Kosovo Temple.
