In memoriam
Mirko Racki was a Croatian painter. Racki was born in Novi Marof, and graduated from the Teacher's Academy in Zagreb. He then went to the private art school of Heinrich Strehblow in Vienna, then studied at the Academy in Prague under Vlaho Bukovac and in Vienna under W. Unger. He lived in Munich from 1907 to 1914, then in Rome, Geneva, Zagreb, and finally in Split. His most productive period was when he lived outside Croatia, but he was in permanent contact with Croatian artists (Izidor Kršnjavi and Ivan Meštrovic), and during those times he worked in the spirit of the Vienna Secession. In 1941 Racki was admitted into the Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts. Racki's most important collection of work is connected to Dante's The Divine Comedy and he was occupied with these motifs until the end of his life.
