In Paris Mestrovic also developed the first designs for the Kossovo monument. |

| | In 1939, Ivan Mestrovic bought the complex (by then badly in need of repair) with the intention of converting this property near his representative palace into a more intimate space to be used for displaying his works. | | | Even though its style and artistic quality are not uniform, the cycle remains a completed unit in the corpus of Ivan Mestrovic’s work and a unique phenomenon in the Croatian art history. | | | The whole Christ-inspired cycle, except for the reliefs at the time deposited in Split, was first presented to the public in 1950 in the Hendricks Chapel, College of Fine Arts Syracuse University. |

| | It was the face of Mestrovic, neatly caricatured, and the students were using an enormous compass, which required the efforts of both, to measure the huge, beaky nose -- a reasonable facsimile of the sculptor's own heroic schnoz -- that jutted impressively up towards the ceiling. | | | I have a Mestrovic story, too, though it's really a story about a French artist named Jean Charlot. | | | He was truly a great artist and a perfect fit for Notre Dame, in that he was drawn to religious subjects and worked in what I would describe as a post-Michelangelo style--powerful figures but with expressions reflecting 20th century angst. |

| | Syracuse University and Mestrovic - Eleanor Milne Album |
| | As an expressionist sculptor whose work borrowed freely but never directly from the art of medieval Europe, Mestrovic also served as a profoundly important stylistic reference point for Milne; an affiliation she would be the last to deny, and one that would stand her in great stead as Dominion Sculptor. | | | leanor Milne decided to study with Ivan Mestrovic (1883–1962) at Syracuse University after a friend advised her that the Croatian sculptor was similarly concerned with issues of the spirit. | | | As a graduate student Milne was able to work closely with this individual, thought by many to be the foremost living architectural sculptor, as well as one of the great religious artists of the twentieth century. |
