Abstract

Rad se bavi prikazima žena nastalim u hrvatskoj umjetnosti krajem 19. i početkom 20. stoljeća. Rad uključuje istraživanje konteksta vremena, posebno se oslanjajući na društvene i političke promjene koje su uslijedile u spomenutom razdoblju. S obzirom na povezanost književnosti i likovne umjetnosti krajem 19. stoljeća, dio pozornosti se posvetio i utjecaju književnosti na društvo. Također zbog promjene položaja žena u društvu, rad istražuje odnos društva prema novoj ženi i osjećaje koji su se mogli razviti te utjecati na odnos između žena i muškaraca. Središnji dio rada obuhvaća djela nekolicine hrvatskih umjetnika s kraja 19. i početka 20. stoljeća i njihove prikaze žena. Za početak su predstavljeni neki od inozemnih umjetnika i njihova djela koja su utjecala na rad naših umjetnika, a potom slijedi analiza djela hrvatskih umjetnika. Na izabranim djelima analizira se umjetnikov pristup oslikavanju ženske figure na temelju teme djela, njezine odjeće i okruženja. Djela su podijeljena u različite skupine s obzirom na temu, odnosno naslov prikaza. Važno je sagledati kako su hrvatski umjetnici prikazivali ženu krajem 19. i početkom 20. stoljeća dok su se paralelno odvijale velike promjene vezane za status žena u društvu.

Abstract (english)

The thesis discusses depictions of women in Croatian art at the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th century. The thesis includes research into the context of time, relying in particular on the social and political changes that followed in the said period. Given the connection of literature and fine arts, particularly in the late 19th century, part of the focus is devoted to the influence of literature on society. The shift in the status of women that occurred at that time is further explored in form of the attitude of society towards the new woman and the feelings that may have developed and influenced the relationship between women and men. The groundwork of the thesis encompasses artworks by several Croatian artists from the late 19th and early 20th centuries and their depiction of women. Initially, an introduction of the works of other European artists and their influence on the local artists will be made. This will be followed by an analysis of the works of Croatian artists. In the selected works artist’s approach in painting female figures will be observed. The analysis is based on the topic of work, women’s gestures and clothing as well as the environment they are depicted in. The works are divided into different categories with regards to the title or topic of what is being presented. The key idea is to analyze the way in which Croatian artists depict women in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, a period in which major societal changes were occurring and the status of women was shifting significantly.
