STALNA POSTAVKA NARODNOG MUZEJA / PERMANENT EXHIBITION OF THE NATIONAL MUSEUM AMONG THE GEMS MEĐU BISERIMA
Najstariji centralni muzej u Srbiji, Narodni muzej u Beogradu, u okviru stalne postavke na 5.000 kvadratnih metara nudi posetio- cima mogućnost da se upoznaju sa umetnošću i kulturama koje su se smenjivale na teritoriji Srbije i regiona od paleolita do 20. veka.
Slika Jesenji put u delu Save Šumanovića zauzima izuzetno mesto. Ne zato što je jedno od poslednjih dela, niti jedno od najpopular- nijih, već zbog toga što je u njemu dostigao sintezu svog dotadaš- njeg stvaralaštva, to je njegov najzreliji likovni izraz. Sunčani je- senji predeo koncipiran je realistički, izveden sigurnom rukom u neverovatno harmoničnom spletu vizuelnog i emotivnog doživlja- ja, objektivnog i subjektivnog trenutka. Slika predstavlja ostvare- nje potpunog sklada. Serbia’s oldest central museum, the National Museum in Belgrade, o ers visitors – within the scope of its permanent exhibition, on an area of 5000 m2 – the possibility to acquaint themselves with the arts and cultures that have come and gone on the territory of Serbia and the region from the Palaeolithic era to the 20 th century. The painting Autumnal Road occupies an exceptional place among the works of Sava Šumanović. That’s not because it was one of his last works, nor one of his most popular, but because in it he achieved a synthesis of his creative work thus far, his most mature artistic expression. The sunny au- tumnal landscape is conceptualised realistically, executed with a steady hand in an incredibly harmonious fusion of visual and emotional experi- ence, an objective and subjective moment. The picture represents the reali- sation of complete harmony.

Paja Jovanović je svojom četkicom ovekovečio mnoge uticajne ljude svog vremena. Na Portretu Mihajla Pupina slavnog naučnika je naslikao u njego- voj istraživačkoj laboratoriji 1903. go- dine u Americi. Na portretu je akcento- van Pupinov jasan i vizionarski pogled, koji posmatraču sugeriše svet pronala- zaka i neslućenih otkrića kojima je na- učnik zadužio čovečanstvo. Zahvaljujući prvenstveno ličnim naporima i izdašnim finansijskim sredstvima, osim ovog por- treta koji je darovao Narodnom muzeju, Pupin je poklonio još devet remek-dela srpskog slikarstva 19. veka.
Paja Jovanović immortalised many in uential peo- ple of his time, with his brush. For the Portrait of Mi- hailo Pupin, Jovanović painted the famous scien- tist in his research laboratory in the U.S. in 1903. The portrait accentuates Pupin’s clear and vision- ary eyes, which suggest to the observer the world of inventions and unprecedented discoveries to which humanity is indebted to this scientist. Thanks principally to Pupin’s personal e orts and gener- ous funds, in addition to donating this portrait to the National Museum, Pupin donated another nine masterpieces of 19 th century Serbian ne art.

Slika Tahićanka je vredno platno iz poslednјe stvaralačke fаze Pola Gogena. Be- žeći od konvencionalizma, dvoličnosti i arogancije pariskog društva s početka ere konzumerizma, Gogen pronalazi fizičko i duhovno utočište na ostrvima Francuske Polinezije. Živeći sa domorodačkim stanovništvom, Gogen uobličava svoj likovni izraz i paletu i nalazeći motive među scenama iz života ostrvljana u civilizacijom netaknutom pejzažu. Narodnom muzeju, koji je tada nosio naziv Muzej kneza Pa- vla, sliku mlade Tahićanke poklonio je 1935. godine Žorž Vijo, knežev prijatelj. The Tahitian Girl picture is a valuable canvas from Paul Gauguin’s last phase of crea- tive work. Fleeing the conventionalism, duplicity and arrogance of Parisian society from the beginnings of the era of consumerism, Gauguin nds physical and spiritual refuge in the islands of French Polynesia. Whilst living with the natives, Gauguin re- shapes his artistic expression and palette, nding motifs among scenes from the lives of islanders, in a landscape untouched by civilisation. It was in 1935 that this painting of a young Tahitian girl was donated to the National Museum, which was then called Prince Pavle’s Museum, by the prince’s personal friend, Georges Viejo.
