The frame of reference for interpreting these artworks consists of a specific Orientalism springing from the fertile ground of romanticism, which is at the same time underscored by, and tinged with, notions of Slavic solidarity. The painter Jaroslav Čermák is a key figure in this context. His example played an important role in the...
