Zagrebačka zbirka sadrenih odljeva antičke skulpture. Summary: The Zagreb Greek and Roman plaster-cast collection

THE ZAGREB GREEK AND ROMAN PLASTER-CAST COLLECTION SUMMARY A new permanent exhibition of Glyptotheque of the Croatian Academy of Science and Arts (Gliptoteka HAZU) Greek and Roman plaster-cast collection in 2005, with the participation of the author, stimulated a thorough inquiry into previous exhibitions, the collection’ s origin and later development. The idea of a museum of Greek and Roman plaster-casts originated in the then ever-present Iso Kršnjavi’ s circle, and his Department of Religious Questions and Education at the Royal Government of the Triune Kingdom of Croatia, Slavonia and Dalmatia acquired in 1892 plaster-casts of the Parthenon marbles. The exhibition was organized in the atrium of the newly-built Downtown grammar-school building, under the supervision of Josip Brunšmid, an outstanding professor of archaeology and the principal of the Archaeological Museum in Zagreb. After a rather short period of interest, and with Kršnjavi departing from the government the collection deteriorated, but interest was revived in a way when it was transferred to the then Glyptotheque (Gipsoteka), largely due to Antun Bauer. Unfortunately, after another shortlived period of popularity the collection continued to deteriorate, finally stopped in 2005.
