Dr Jekyll on a business trip in Croatia

Poster for Vizkultura, noted Croatian on-line platform for visual culture & art. The illustration reveals a fanciful case that occurred on the Croatian coast. Dr Jekyll, a well-known character from the iconic Gothic novella “Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde” by Scottish author Robert Louis Stevenson came to Croatia on a summer holiday. After a couple of days mingling with the locals, Balkan–style dolce far niente manners took him over completely. One day he overheard two comrades talking. „Oh no my friend, we don't have to do anything. The only certain thing we shall do is die.“ Confused, Dr Jekyll stopped and declared a new plan: „These fellow gentlemen are right. I don't have to do everything by myself, Mr Hyde should do the rest of the work.“
