Sažetak
The scale model of a traditional multipurpose folk house from Ivo Čakalić’s Collection formed a part of several permanent displays at the Požega City Museum. The author Ivo Čakalić, folk artist and peasant from Doljanovci, made this model based on his own family home built in the mid-19th century. This exhibit represents a typical form of a traditional Slavonian house. In an educative and accessible fashion for all ages, it documents the way a peasant house from the Požega area looked like and functioned in the period between the mid-19th and the beginning of the 20th century. It further represents a record of the peasant lifestyle there and then. Multiple possibilities of interpreting this exhibit have been demonstrated in the yearlong communication with visitors. The item itself has become a guiding idea in representing the ethnographic part of the future museum display. The idea is to show the typical features of the traditional culture in the Požega area in the late 19th and the first half of the 20th century, and present them in the form of a traditional house – the first spatial framework of peasant life.
