Self-portrait, and my sister behind ``The national costume of Gnjilane or Kosovsko Pomoravlje is one of the most famous Serbian costumes from Kosovo and Metohija. The women's folk costume of Gnjilane (Kosovsko Pomoravlje) is dominated by white or soft colors. The women's dress is hand-embroidered at the back, and this women's costume is characterized by a so-called waistband (``reska``) - it is a belt worn around the waist, with tassels falling below the waist. The waistband is decorated with hand-sewn silver coins and a hand-embroidered handkerchief on the front. Bodice has a characteristic cut and is made in several colors with silver and gold ornaments. The apron is hand-woven and hand-embroidered, and socks and other parts of the costume are made in several variants depending on whether the costume is for a married woman or a girl.", comment_s = ``

About the Artist/Seller

Jelena Tankosic

Serbia

Serbian painter Jelena Tankosic`s works can be found in private collections worldwide. Tankosic works with acrylic on canvas, which she occasionally augments with a touch of oil. Tankosic`s first concern is texture- once she is satisfied with the textural balance, she composes the forms. Inspired by symbolism and mythology, Tankosic often paints scenes from matriarchal societies, as well as images from nature. Joyful and ornate, Tankosic`s pieces fuse abstract impressionism with realism in richly textured scenes.Discover the contemporary art of... Read More
