"Springtime in Mostar" (1903) by Hungarian artist Tivadar Kosztka Csontvary depicts a picturesque scene of the Bosnian city of Mostar. This expressive painting uses bold, vibrant colors and dynamic brushstrokes to capture the essence of the city nestled amidst the rolling hills. The cityscape is rendered in a layered approach, showcasing the blending of architectural styles, including mosques and churches, in a composition that reflects the diverse cultural heritage of Mostar.
