The article discusses the oeuvre of the architect Hans Pascher from Graz, Austria, who in the period of the increased building activity in 19th and 20th centuries erected most of the churches in Lower Styria. It is an analysis of the newly-erected buildings (Prebold, Čadram, Žalec, Cirkovce, Dol pri Hrastniku, Brestanica, Radelca) and presents the unrealised plans for the church of St. Magdalene in Maribor. The significant contribution of the study is the analysis of Pascher's churches in Slovenian part of Styria in the context of late Historicist architecture in Austro-Hungarian Monarchy.

Elsa Kasimir (1887–1944) studied at the Vienna School of Applied Arts. Few of her works are to be found in Art Gallery Maribor. The article points to an interesting part of Elsa’s early work: some drawings and an etching, showing a girl, sitting in the tree. The unconventional motif can also be found in the oeuvre of some other painters. Especially Segantini’s painting Le cattive madri (1894), which was exposed in Sezession in Vienna in 1898 is interesting for the comparison. Elsa was a well-educated young woman, who was sufficiently informed about the most topical events in the field of art.
