About
[edit]She attended a private painting school at Krizman School of Painting in Zagreb, where she studied under Tomislav Krizman.[3][4] From 1913 to 1917, she continued her education at Kunstgewerbeschule in Dresden, Germany. Afterward, she pursued further studies in Paris from 1920 to 1930.[3] In 1921 and 1922, she worked on creating lithographic maps of Dubrovnik, while staying in that city[3] Her painting work had two major series, one of which was "dance" and was inspired dancers by Anna Pavlova, Grete Wiesenthal, and Gertrud Leistikow.[4] The other series was "lovers".[4]
In 1935, she met German painter Ludwig Weninger (1904–1945) and a romance was started between them.[5] By the beginning of World War II (c.1939), the relationship ended.[5]
In 1946, she became a scientific illustrator for the School of Medicine in Zagreb, and she lessened her time painting.[4]
