The Museum of Arts and Crafts in the Independent State of Croatia - A Contribution to Knowing the History of the Museum

Arijana Koprčina ; Museum of Arts and Crafts, Zagreb

Sažetak

Koprčina explored the museum’s activities, focusing on three specific themes: the inventory of artworks and valuables, diplomatic gifts removed from the museum collection, and the fate of librarian Zdenko Vojnović. By thoroughly investigating the participation of museum professionals in the inventory of artworks, archives, and libraries in private possession, as well as materials from Orthodox churches and monasteries, which were under the jurisdiction of the Museum of Arts and Crafts during the war, she uncovered an unknown aspect of the museum’s involvement – museum staff’s participation in certain commissions for cataloguing gold and valuables seized from Jews, Serbs, and others, under the authority of the police and the Croatian State Bank.
