Jovan Bijelic (1886-1963) is a noted Serbian artist. We know nothing about him at this time. A Yugoslav movie was made about him with his name as a title (1958). We note one of his paintings etitled 'Petite Dubravka' which we do not yet understand. This image has us puzzled. It is autumn because the child is wearing a scarf and jersey. The child wears a hat. The child's hair appears to be cut short. The facial appearance suggest a boy. The child looks to be aged about 9 or 10.
It also seems that a dress is being worn . the white ankle socks and black strap shoes suggest the subject is a girl. I am not sure if Dubravka is the name of a village or the child. If it is a name we are unsure if is a boy's or girl's name. We are not sure if it pictures a boy or girl. A reader from Serbia writes, "The picture of the child in autumn is a girl. The wording 'Petite Dubravka' means "Little Girl".
