Studio Generalic

Birth record from the year 1914.

admin — Fri, 16 Jul 2010 18:05:12 +0000

We’d like to present a photograph of a genuine book with birth records of people born during December 1914 in Hlebine. As you can see at the bottom of the page there’s a record of Ivan Generalic being born on 21st, which was – Monday.

This was, of course, the first time that the name Ivan Generalic has been written and it was done by a priest in a local church.

The search for the book took several weeks and was eventually found in the Town hall archive in Koprivnica in 2009 as all records were moved several times during the WW2. The research was done by the City museum of Koprivnica.

One of the most famous and valuable masterpieces in Croatian Naive Art. The painting is presently on a safe location, not presented to public.

The back story of this masterpiece
The painting tells a story about a very old legend – in surrounding woods there was a magic Unicorn and only older couples often went in there to search for him. Why only them? Because the legend says – if an old man and woman see it, they will get young again and be forever in love! So, the painting shows that crucial moment of excitement when this couple achieved their long awaited moment!
