THE WEEKEND IN BLACK AND WHITE : Nadezda Petrovic
This statue of painter Nadezda Petrovic stands in a park near my home downtown. Nadezda was a fauvist and impressionist painter, born in 1873. Her works appear in many museums in Serbia, and her likeness has also been featured on Serbian postage stamps.
