Adrijanina nit: portret zagrebačke sponzoruše

Adrijanina nit: portret zagrebačke sponzoruše

Milana Vuković Runjić

People always think they know who the sponsor is: a calculating, not-so-bad-looking woman who married for money.

Something between a saint and a whore, she sells her soul and body, forever, at the altar. She becomes the devoted wife of some rich guy, his support in good times and bad, a refuge from the storms of life…in time, I guess, she even comes to love him. Of course, she was born a poor and modest beauty, preferably from the countryside or a small town on the coast.
