Abstract

Antun Drobac was born in Dubrovnik on April 13, 1810, spent his lifetime in it and died there, too (March 8 1822). Drobac was pharmacist by profession but engaged in numerous public activities: he was a merchant, ship-owner, public servant, politician, board museum lover and collector. Dubrovnik owes him greatly for his services in public health, economy and culture. He was an honorable citizen of the town and continued to be so to the present day. The city authorities engaged Ivan Rendić, the famous sculptor to model Drobac's bust. A street in Dubrovnik was also named after him.
