Summary/Abstract: Russian-Serbian cultural connections in a broader sense, represented through direct parallels in Russian and Serbian sacral painting, architectural decoration, sacral interior design and phenomenа in court art canons of the last Romanov’s and Karađorđević’s dynasties are insufficiently researched. By using the concrete monuments, mostly in Russian style, Russian symbolism and Art Nouveau, but also the court canon at the turn of the century in Russia through the works of Russian emigrants after the October revolution in Serbia during the 1920s and 1930s, the use of Russian pictorial features and cultural models adapted to Serbian demands is going to be demonstrated.
