This is Dora Krupićeva - she was the only daughter of a goldsmith who lived at the Upper Town. More importantly she is not real but a character from a very famous novel written by Croatian writer August Šenoa in 1871. So, to make a long story short (as the Americans would say) at the end she died (was poisoned) because would not want to merry the evil Grga Čokolin. Oh well...
