- “Great Odalisques” was painted in 1954–1955 in oil on canvas and belongs to the Legacy of Leposava Lepa Perović.
- The composition is dominated by three female nudes, shown seated and semi-reclining in the foreground.
- The figures are slightly stylized and defined by dark contours, which give them a sculptural presence.
- They appear positioned before a mirror, quietly observing their own reflections.
- The scene conveys a sense of waiting and suspended time, as if anticipating someone’s arrival.
- The dark background tones intensify the atmosphere of silence, tension, and introspection.
- The painting reflects Srbinović’s interest in classical themes, reinterpreted through a modern, restrained sensibility.
