Biography: Daughter of the well-known poet and general Petar Preradović. She lost her father at the age of five. Her mother, née Regnar, born in Vienna, made it possible for her artistic education, first in the Arts School for Women and Girls, and then with several good masters in Vienna, among whom the best known was Maria Egner. She also spent three seasons in the artists colony in Dachau near Munich. At the same time she exhibited in the Künstlerhaus in Vienna, in Salzburg and Prague. She lived in Vienna for a considerable time, and moved to Zagreb only in 1918, where she opened a private arts school. The popularity (and commercial success) of her "Still Lives", especially with motifs of flowers, is seen by the fact that, from 1918, the "Salon Ullrich" gallery in Zagreb had an exhibition of her work every year at Christmas (and even posthumously, until 1927). |
