Adam Stefanović

Adam Stefanović (Serbian Cyrillic: Адам Стефановић, 27 November 1832 – 6 May 1887) was a Serbian lithographer and painter. Together with Pavle Čortanović, he authored illustrations of the Kosovo Cyclus (of Serbian epic poetry).

Life

Stefanović was born in Perlez, Austrian Empire (now Serbia). He was educated at the University of Munich in 1867, and then at the University of Vienna.[1]

He was an associate of Pavle Čortanović.[2] He lived in Pančevo in the 1870s, where he published his lithographs with Čortanović.[3] He is deemed to have been "far better" of an illustrator than his companion.[3]
