Pavle Čortanović (5 February 1830, in Novi Sad, then Habsburg monarchy, now Serbia – 31 March 1903, in Belgrade, Serbia) was a Serbian painter. Pavle was the son and student of Petar Čortanović. Pavle also studied art at the Vienna Academy of Fine Arts from 1845 until the winter semester of 1852–1853. [1]
He was the author of many icons that grace the sanctuary screens ( iconostasis) of Serbian Orthodox churches in Vojka (1859), Vasica (1863), Bodegraj (1885), and also in Besenov, Ravanica, Grabovo, Stara Pazova, Veliki Radinci, Berkasovo, Ruma, Lalić and other places. [2] He also authored a portrait of Miloš Obrenović, prince and ruler of the Principality of Serbia. [3]
Works by Pavle Čortanović can be found in art galleries and museums throughout the country. Also, Čortanović's work can be found in the collection of Milan Jovanović Stojimirović who bequeathed a large number of paintings, sketches, and artifacts to the Art Department of the Museum in Smederevo.
