TITLE: Our National Embroideries at the Exhibition in Ischl. DESCRIPTION: This is a report on Slavic and Dalmatian national embroideries displayed in an exhibition in Ischl, Austria, written by Jelica Belović. Jelica Belović Bernadzikowski (1870-1946) was born in Osijek (Eszék, Esseg) in 1870 and died in 1946 in Novi Sad (Újvidék). Her public work includes teaching in different towns of Austria-Hungary, ethnographic and museum work, and publishing. Among her published work is Srpski narodni vez i tekstilna ornamentika [Serbian National Embroidery and Textile Ornamentation] in 1907, a book about the cultural history of South Slavs published in German under the name Jasna Belović in Dresden in 1927. She also published over twenty ethnographic, pedagogic and anthropological works. Belović edited the publication Srpkinja [Serbian Woman] about the intellectual work of Serbian women in 1913, writing in the introduction to this volume about the absence of women in literary history. This report was published in Ženski svet. List dobrotvornih zadruga Srpkinja (Women’s World: Journal of the Charitable Cooperatives of Serbian Women). The journal was published between 1886 and 1914 in Novi Sad (Újvidék), the Vojvodina, by the Charitable Cooperative of Serbian Women from Novi Sad (Dobrotvorna zadruga Srpkinja Novosatkinja). The Vojvodina belonged to the Kingdom of Croatia-Slavonia which enjoyed a considerable degree of autonomy within the Lands of the Crown of Saint Stephen, or Hungary, in the dual Monarchy (from 1867) of Austria-Hungary. Serbian was one of the dominant languages spoken in the Vojvodina. The editor of the journal was Arkadije Varađanin, a man who was an active proponent of women’s rights and who was a teacher and director of the Serbian High School for Girls established in Novi Sad in 1874. In the article, Jelica Belović writes about the exhibition in Ischl where Slavic national embroideries were presented. She complains about the fact that “foreign pockets” are being filled up by selling the Slavic national embroideries copied and produced by Austrian women. She also complains that the origin of the exhibited embroideries is silenced and referred to as “antique” and “Old Egyptian,” while the origin is actually from the Serbian, Croatian, Dalmatian, Slovak, Czech, Little Russian and Polish parts of Austria(-Hungary). Being an expert herself, Belović describes in details how different embroideries are originally produced. Her tone is angry and in closing she states that for women “in our areas” it would be crucial to understand that apart from working in the house and for the house, they can also earn money by producing embroidery. For more on embroidery, see Savka Subotić, “Part I and Part II [Part I: First Attempts of My Work in the Field of our National Domestic Industry, and Part II: On the Exhibitions in Pest and in Novi Sad],” in O našim narodnim tkaninama i rukotvorinama [On Our National Textiles and Handicrafts] (Novi Sad, 1904), 1–55 (55pp.).
