The Photographs of Rudolf Bruner-Dvo?ák: Uncorrupted Little Turkey and Visitor Impressions from the Exhibition “Bosnia in 1905 as Depicted in the Photographs of Rudolf Bruner-Dvo?ák” (Translation)Keywords: Bosnia, Cazin, Other, Muslims, contrast, symbol, identity, impressions Abstract: Sa?etak Until 2007 it was not widely known that the historian Pavel Scheufler in the Czech Republic had in his possession a photographic archive containing over 300 photographs from Bosnia and Herzegovina, a large number of which were taken in Cazin.

Visitor impressions differed, but all of them expressed gratitude for the effort put in organising the exhibition, which was deemed to be an indication of the continuity of the Cazin area
