The Sketches by Jan Baptist Van Moer

Sažetak
The article depicts Jan Baptist van Moer's sketches held in the Ethnographic Museum of Split. A book that is referred to contains 118 small sketches mainly drawn in pencil, with few watercolored details. Since the sketches were presumably created during the artist's travels in 1858, they are regarded as artistic records within the context of travel descriptions of the Adriatic Croatia in the mid-19th century. In general, van Moer's preoccupations are everyday street life scenes, which in most cases show groups of figures dressed in traditional costumes. Descriptions of the sketches call attention to their ethnographic and wider cultural and historic significance, as well as to a need to translate notes written by the artist; besides denoting colors and sites, they would probably give interpretations of some images.
