Vlaho Bukovac brought the spirit of impressionism from Paris, and he strongly influenced the young artists (including the authors of "Golden Hall"). Right after he painted the screen in HNK in Zagreb with the theme of "Croatian Illyrian Movement", and symbolic portraits of Croatian Writers in National Library, he founded "The Society of Croatian Artists" (1897), the so-called "Zagreb's colorful school". With this society the Croatian Modern Art started. On the "Millennium Exhibition" in Budapest they were able to set aside all other artistic options in Austria-Hungary.
