CVIJETA ZUZORIC PAVILION


 Cvijeta Zuzoric, pronounced TSVEE-yeh-ta ZHOO-zhor-eech,  (1552=1648) was a lyric poet from what is now Croatia.  She wrote in Latin, Italian, and Croatian.  The building behind the statue is a pavilion used for art exhibits.

Wiki has this to say:  "Cvijeta Zuzorić“ Art Pavilion is an exhibition building in Belgrade, in Kalemegdan, situated in the park's section of Little Kalemegdan, next to the south-eastern front of the Belgrade fortress. It was built between 1927 and 1928 after the design of the architect Branislav Kojić, in the Art Deco architectural style."
