Abstract

The article focuses on Ivan Meštrović’s participation in the Vesna Artists’ Society, as it is regularly mentioned in various, especially Slovenian, art-historical writings, though more as an emphasis enhancing the reputation of the Society without explaining what his role in the Society actually was and why he left it relatively quickly. To shed light on these aspects, some of the mutual relationships between the future Vesna members before the Society’s establishment will be presented, followed by the selected segments of the activities that can provide a more solid definition of the Croatian members of the Society and the Croatian-Slovenian relations within it.
