The exhibits of the Serbian artist Veljko Mihajlovic include more than 40 copper etchings depicting Saint Constantine, the first Christian Emperor, and his mother, Empress Saint Helena, and revealing the motives of Orthodox iconography, and the multilayered cultural and art heritage both from Serbia and the region.

Even though it was initially planned that the exhibition should close on 12 January, it was extended due to the keen interest expressed by the connoisseurs, the media, representatives of the diplomatic corps, and numerous tourists.
