Review:

Jože Plecnik was a Slovene who lived from 1872 to 1957. He was a master of monumental architecture and left his mark on Lubljana, Vienna and Prague. He became professor of the Faculty of Architecture at the Ljubljana university. Plecnik gave Ljubljana its modern look through his Vienna Secession style, a type of Art Nouveau. His works include the Triple Bridge, the open market, the river embankment, the cemetery, parks and plazas. Plecnik's former home consisted of two adjacent houses and a garden. His life and works are depicted there. Besides designing monuments, he had a keen interest in creating sacred objects, 33 of which are in the Vatican Museum.
