A historical, aesthetic, and art-historical reading reveals the master’s spiritual dimension, his existential and design preferences, as well as his relationship to his own nation, which Plečnik sought to elevate by helping it create a national architectural language. In doing so, he juxtaposed the classical and the modern, the Central European and the Mediterranean, merging them into an organic postmodern Stimmung.
