 When Beljanski started collecting works of art, most of the artists whose works he collected were anonymous young people at the beginning of their careers.This underlined the importance of the willingness and ability of Pavle Beljanski to recognize quality and purchase works of art which would, in years to come, gain the most important place in studies of Serbian art of the first half of the 20th century.Pavle Beljanski's Memorial Hall opened in 1966 as a gift from Pavle Beljanski's heirs.
