In the course of more than 30 years of intense scientific research, Cvijić published many significant works. One of the most important ones is "La péninsule balkanique". The photograph was a gift to Division General Milivoj J. Nikolajević (1861, Belgrade – ?) and his wife Sojka. Nikolajević was Court Marshal under the Obrenović dynasty, Chief Executive of the Geographical Department of the Serbian Army's General Staff. It is kept in Nikolajević's collection. |
