Mapping Croatia in United Kingdom Collections
by Flora Turner-Vučetić
Mapping Croatia was published as one of the constituent parts of the ‘Welcome Croatia’ Festival in 2013 celebrating the accession of Croatia to the European Union.
The author presents a catalogue of the works of art of Croatian origin found in museums and galleries and public spaces throughout Britain. She explains: ‘An example is Horacio Fortezza, a Renaissance artist, often described as Italian but who in fact never left his Croatian home town of Šibenik. His best works are in the British Museum and in the Victoria and Albert Museum. These two museums have in their collections some remarkable exhibits linked to Croatia. There are also masterpieces in the National Gallery, the Royal Collections and in museums and collections throughout the country,
The publication begins with an introduction and then lists and describes the items institution by institution. There are 16 colour plates.
