QR code
"Through Bosnia and Herzegovina with a Paint Brush" by Mrs. Edward Robson Whitwell is a travelogue and personal account documenting the author's artistic exploration of Bosnia and Herzegovina, written in the early 20th century. This book captures the essence of the regions she visited and provides illustrations alongside her impressions of the culture, landscapes, and people of these less frequented areas of Europe during a time of significant political change. Through her
art and narrative, Whitwell invites readers into a world rich with history and local charm. The narrative unfolds as Whitwell recounts her travels through picturesque towns and rugged landscapes, from the streets of Sarajevo to the old Roman bridge in Mostar. Illustrated with her sketches, the book portrays the rich cultural tapestry of the region, including its diverse architecture, quaint marketplaces, and local customs. Whitwell shares encounters with local inhabitants, often highlighting the beautiful yet intricate traditional costumes and the challenging, sometimes harsh living conditions she observed. Despite the weather having a significant impact on her journey, leading to missed opportunities for painting, she eloquently expresses both challenges and delights encountered while immersing herself in the culture and scenery of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
