He then lived and worked in Italy, and upon his return published travelogues in the magazines Zastava and Javor in 1874. His work was influenced by the Italian masters that he studied. Josip Juraj Strossmayer, particularly, valued his work. Marodić was elected member of the Matica srpska literary department in 1883. He lived and worked in Kovilj until 1903, then in Novi Sad. His most accomplished work was the iconostasis in the Kovilj monastery. He was buried in the Dormition cemetery in Novi Sad. Marodić was the first academic painter from Subotica and a representative of academicism and romanticism in Serbian painting in the second half of the 19th century. His birth house is part of the cultural heritage of Serbia under the protection of the Cultural Monuments of Exceptional Importance. A large number of his works are exhibited in the gallery of Matica srpska, of which 32 works are donated by the Bačka Gallery in Subotica. A street in Subotica bears his name. (en)
