Sažetak
The history scholar Ivan Lucić (1604 – 1679) was certainly
one of the most prominenent personalities who made their mark
by their life-work on the 17th century Trogir still at that time under
the domination of the Republic of Venice.
The Lucić family lived in the palace on the Trogir seafront,
built right beside the city ramparts. Ivan’s grandfather, Jerolim,
had made an extension and reconstruction to the palace in
developed Renaissance style in the mid-16th century so that it
did not offer an insight into the 17th century mansion even if had
conserved its originality. The only fact known is that Ivan himself
had some alterations made to the house in the first half of the 17th
century: rearranged his study on the second floor of the palace to
communicate with the hall, built a door into through the adjacent
wall where he made a concealed staircase to descend unnoticed
into the lower rooms.
It is to suppose that the disposition of rooms within
the palace was the same as it was in other accomodation units:
reception-rooms on the first floor, bedrooms on the second as well
as his office for that part of the house was more peaceful while the
kitchen was in the converted attic.
The furnishings of his room in Rome were similar by the
looks and inventories to those rooms in the then palaces of Venice
and Dalmatia: four-posted bed, mattress, blanket, nightstand,
little table with chairs, chests, and praying desk.....
As for men’s clothing – the style of dressing afound the
middle of the 17th century consisted of a pair of breeches, kneehighs,
jerkin, shirt. The shirts had longer cuffs coming out the
115
shirt-sleeved jerkins, plain or lace-trimmed. In a decorated variant
they had rounded collars with frilled strips. Capes and mantels
were worn over other clothes. Hairstyles at the beginning of the
century were shoulder-long, then long hair ws in fashion, and
towards the 17th century wigs were worn. The womens’ main piece
of clothing was vestura, an outer garment that was in the 17th
century originally called haylia. At the beginning of the century it
had a richly laced, sometimes pleated, stand-up collar, and richly
laced cuffs. The models were broad-waisted and folded in lower
part with crinoline worn under the skirt. Hairstyles were arranged
in buns with curls falling down the neck.
According to the data available, including few portraits
preserved, it is possible to picture the everyday life of Ivan Lucić,
the comparison with neighbouring and oevrseas Italian towns
being of great help. Generally speaking, Lucić lived in the way the
most of his wel-to-do contemporaries lived; in the rooms furnished
in compliance wth the 17th century, dressed and lived alike. Yet,
as a distinguished intelectual, book - and archivalia-devotee, he
had his Trogir palace as well as Rome premises adapted to his
researches.
