The collection contains several works by Croatian modern artists, spanning from Vlaho Bukovac, Bela Csikos Sesia, Ferdo Kovačević, Menci Clement Crnčić, Emanuel Vidović, Miroslav Kraljević and the Munich Group, Milivoj Uzelac and the Prague Group, to Ljubo Babić, Jerolim Miše, Miljenko Stančić, and others.
