www.ug<strong>dubrovnik</strong>.hr. This fine house next to <strong>the</strong><br />
Rector’s Palace is home to a gallery with some <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> finest<br />
views in Europe - <strong>the</strong> windows look out onto <strong>the</strong> Ca<strong>the</strong>dral,<br />
rivalling <strong>the</strong> artworks inside. The three painters that make<br />
up <strong>the</strong> gallery’s title are famous for painting local <strong>the</strong>mes<br />
in eye-poppingly vivid style. Đuro Pulitika’s swirly, candycoloured<br />
landscapes are a particular joy, and it’s a wonder<br />
that this little-frequented attraction doesn’t get a whole lot<br />
more visitors. The building was repaired and renovated by<br />
<strong>the</strong> US Government and serves as a memorial to Secretary<br />
<strong>of</strong> Commerce Ronald Brown who in 1996 died in a plane<br />
crash flying to Dubrovnik. QOpen 10:00 - 20:00. Closed<br />
