Abstract
The paper discusses Anton Karinger’s painting executed in 1862, representing the funeral procession which accompanied the body of Danilo I, Prince of Montenegro, assassinated in 1860, from Kotor to Cetinje. The subject of the painting, its protagonists and their roles are interpreted in the context of political relations between the Austrian Empire and Montenegro during the reign of Danilo I, while its visual features are assessed as reflections of contemporary reforms of historical and landscape painting.
