Abstract

By using the interpretative method, the aim of this paper is to indicate one of the characteristics of Peić’s style – writing with visual elements and using colours, based on his travelogue Wanderings. It will also attempt to show the meaning of colours and non-colours in the work of this painter of words, as well as the role of colours in a synesthetic accord of the senses. In Skitnje it is possible to see the author’s multi-layer experience, and base the interpretation of one of these many layers on the fact that the author is an educated painter. This is one of the reasons why the pages of Skitnje are seen by many as some of the most beautiful texts in this genre.
