Near Subotica in Serbia, along the Palic lake promenade in the park, there is the Bagojvar, in translation owl's tower or owl's nest, a beautiful old building built with the neighboring villa Louise in 1891 within the sports complex of Lajos Vermes (Vermes Lajos), a prominent athlete and founder of the Palić Olympics in 1880. The villa was built in fashionable Swiss style at that time, with abundant use of wood and tiles of the famous Zsolnay ceramics from Pecs. The guest athletes stayed here, so it can be considered the first Olympic hotel in Europe, since it was built before the establishment of the modern Olympic Games. Next to Bogojvar, there is a monument dedicated to Lajoš Vermeš which was built later. There used to be an asphalt bike path, grandstands, exercise pavilions, a summer stage and a café. Today, Bogojvar is out of use and dilapidated, but when you look at it, you can imagine its former splendor. This old villa is also one of the famous tourist attractions and sights of the Palic lake and you can't miss it if you walk along the Palic lake. In May. Palic lake, Vojvodina, Serbia. From the Castles, Fortresses and Towers collection.

Welcome to my Artmajeur fine art gallery!
I am a fine art photographer, photo editor-retoucher and photo restorator and colorist from Serbia with years of experience. I mostly do landscape photography but also other genres of photography and I love to photograph all those beautiful scenes that are worth saving forever.
I started doing fine art photography when I was very young. But I can say that I have been actively and more seriously engaged for the last 25 years, maybe even more. I acquired my education through various professional literature, as well as through online courses and tutorials. however, I mainly acquired my skills through many years of practice, learning during creating, and hard work. I found inspiration in the artworks of great masters of painting and photography. I am still trying to improve myself even more and learn something new. My works can be found in several world-famous online galleries and I have also exhibited my works in art galleries and exhibitions in the country.
Here you can buy my artwork prints: fine art prints, canvas prints, metal prints, framed prints that will decorate your home and all of that in the best possible print quality. All you see here are my original artworks, so I do not resale any stock images.
What makes me happiest is when I see that people really like my work and want it hanging on their walls. That makes me work harder and create even more nice artworks. I hope you will like some of my images.
Enjoy.
