Abstract

The Battle of Vis was the paramount maritime event in the Adriatic Sea in the second half of the 19th century. Austria defeated the Italian fleet and for a time strengthened its position in the Adriatic, and Italy’s pretensions to the eastern Adriatic shore decreased. Medals and plaques were made to commemorate the event, and are described in this article.
