Abstract

This paper deals with ancient facade motifs in the recent architecture of Belgrade and the influences under which they were created. Generations of our students who stayed in France and other European countries brought the neoclassical style to Serbia. With the development of Neoclassicism, characters from ancient mythology came to life on Belgrade’s facades. Particularly interesting antique facade motifs can still be seen today on the buildings of the Palace of the Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts, Archives of Serbia, Captain Miša’s building, Old General Staff, Old Royal Palace, Turkish Embassy, AdriaticDanube Bank, Palace of Yugoslav Bank, Government of the Republic of Serbia, and House of the National Assembly of the Republic of Serbia.
