A Brief Biography of Nikola Graovac<\/strong><\/p>\n

The painter Nikola Graovac<\/strong> was born in 1907<\/strong> in Vrebac<\/strong>, the fourteenth and youngest child of a poor family. He completed primary school in his native village, but, lacking the means to continue his education, he set out on foot for Belgrade<\/strong>. There he earned his living through strenuous manual labour, sending part of his wages back to support his family in Vrebac.<\/p>\n

Gifted with exceptional artistic talent, Graovac saved enough money to attend an art school. He went on to become one of the foremost masters of colourist Expressionism<\/strong> in Serbian painting.<\/p>\n

His humanitarian work was equally noteworthy. He bequeathed a rich legacy of 35 paintings<\/strong> and numerous works of applied art to the King Peter Endowment at Oplenac<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Graovac frequently returned to his native Vrebac, where he used his camera to immortalize his family, relatives, and neighbours.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
