Moтив пса у иконографији ликовних уметности
Dog Motif in the Iconography of Visual Arts

Summary/Abstract: The study explores the double role given to the figure of the dog in visual arts, painting in particular – the role in saving and documenting the facts about men‘s life in specific time and place, and the role of a symbol in which man imbeded and saved his mytological-religious relation to the world that surrounds him. Although there are many studies of this topic published in the word, there aren‘t any translated in Serbian or available in the country. That is why this text aims at bringing more interest in Serbian art literature to the figure of dog in art. The study is concieved as a preface for the more extensive research that will include the examples from Serbian painting and sculpture which are very selectively suggested in footnotes.
