| Comment: | The hand-written inscription on the verso states that the young woman was a fourth grade pupil at the Higher School of Learning for Women when the picture was taken. Ana Jovanović (1888, Kragujevac – 1956, Belgrade) was Mihailo P. Jovanović's daughter. Mihailo was an attorney and served as Minister of Justice (1903–1905) and as head of the Court of Cassation (as of 1908). Ana married Captain Pantelija Ž. Jurišić (who later became General of the Royal Army), who was the son of the prominent Serbian natural scientist Živojin Jurišić, who, among other things, was the founder of the Natural Science Museum of Serbian Land (which is now the Natural History Museum) and the Serbian Botanical Society. Photograph kept in photo album no. 22369, which belonged to the Zorić family. Svetozar Zorić (1853, Titel–1931, Belgrade) studied mechanical engineering and worked in Western Europe before returning to Serbia, where he became an Honorary Professor at the Technical University of Belgrade after working for the national railway company. He was very much interested in painting and encouraged his niece Nadežda Petrović and his daughter Milica Zorić in their artistic ambitions. Both became very famous artists. |
