The Embassy of the Republic of Serbia in Bern hosted on its premises an exhibition of Belgrade-themed photographs by H.R.H. Prince Mihailo Karadjordjevic, who is a resident of Geneva. The exhibition was organized as part of activities marking the centenary of the establishment of the Serbian Embassy to the Swiss Confederation.
Addressing the audience which included Members of Parliament, representatives of federal authorities, diplomatic corps and the Serbian diaspora in Switzerland, Ambassador Snezana Jankovic underlined the importance of the exhibition, in the context of the symbolic value conveyed by the fact that at the time of the establishment of the Legation of the Kingdom of Serbia in Bern in 1916, it was the Karadjordjevic dynasty that held the throne in Serbia, whose descendant was presenting his artwork at the Embassy a century later. H.R.H. Prince Mihailo Karadjordjevic welcomed the audience, expressing his gratitude to the Embassy of the Republic of Serbia for hosting the exhibition. |
