Abstract
Figural endeavors of the Cr oatian painters >n t)ze
n>id-twenties appeared to integrate quite well into the general
European context, at the same time presevving the
continuity of home tradition and artistic practice. During the
short-tervn, stylistically unifov>n appearance of Croatian neorealism,
u>ith a prevailing neoclassical and magic-realistic
component present in all our painters belo>zging to any generation
without exceptzon betu cen 1923 and 1926, a quite
synchronous stylistic correlation u>ith European tendencies
of neorealism can easily be recognized. Clear stylistic determinations
and a lzigh quality level were ac)zieved theveby
to such an extent, that this short period is quite distinctly
differentiated, imposing itself as one of the >nost i>npovta>zz
chapters of Croatian painting in the de> elopment of il s f igural
modernism.
