His probable origin as an Aromanian from what is now eastern Albania can be seen as crucial for the development of his business connections, due to extensive, mainly trade-related, migrations of his fellow countrymen to the southern provinces of the Habsburg Monarchy. Their signiicant inancial and consequently cultural inluence in the Orthodox communities of the region greatly contributed to Četirević’s success and, to some extent, determined the iconographic and stylistic traits of his painting. Key words: Jovan Četirević Grabovan, Aromani, Serbian religious painting – 18th century.
