About this event
Galerija Matice srpske in Novi Sad is presenting St. George, a painting by Uroš Predić from 1902 that remained in a private collection in Hungary for more than a century. The work, originally given by the artist to relatives as a wedding gift, was kept in Szentendre and has only recently come to the attention of scholars.
The exhibition was conceived by Dr. Kosta Vuković and Dr. Snežana Mišić in cooperation with the Serbian Church Museum in Hungary, and marks the painting’s first public presentation in Serbia. Alongside the canvas, visitors can see archival research, family documents and old photographs that illuminate civic life and the ties among Serbian families from the late 19th and first half of the 20th century.
Following the heirs’ decision to donate the painting to a museum collection, the exhibition offers a chance to explore a newly documented chapter in Predić’s oeuvre. It is open to visitors through the end of August.
