Frano Kršinić (1897 – 1982) came from a line of carvers and masons; he was trained at the Crafts’ School in Horiče and at the Academy of Fine Arts in Prague. He was one of the founders of the Zemlja group (fine artists of a leftish bent and a marked figurative kind of expression, founded in Zagreb in 1929, characterised by social themes, a propensity to caricature and the grotesque), which he left in 1930. His sculptural ideals were Auguste Rodin, Antoine Bourdelle, Aristide Maillol and Ivan Meštrović; the works on show tell of his main subjects – the figure of woman, in an intimist and lyrical note.
