Paja Jovanović (1859-1957) Paja Jovanović was a Serbian realist painter. One of the most significant Serbian academic artists and a rare Orientalist among Serbian painters of the time. 

Being from Serbia, I am very much familiar with his work, most popular of those being the Migration of the Serbs. Recently, the first painting in the post (Bashi-bazouks Before a Gateway) was auctioned off for almost half a milion pounds. (Source) This made the painting be the most expensive piece of art by a Serbian painter.
