The Habsburgs and Public Monuments in the 19- century Croatia
This presentation will focus on analysing the way in which the cult of the Habsburg Dynasty was promoted through public monuments in Croatia of the 19th and early 20th centuries. The Habsburg Dynasty cult in the 19th- century Croatian art manifested itself primarily as official portraiture of the dynasty members in public institution and in private palaces, and somewhat less frequently through plaques and public monuments. Public monuments dedicated to the members of the Habsburg family were mostly erected in towns and cities where royal family members happen to spend some time, whether as part of their official ceremonial trips throughout the country, visits to military troupes or hunting activities (like Francis Joseph’s monument in Donji Miholjac, or prince Rudolf monument in Kupinovo). Public sculpture in Croatia was at the time under a strong dominance of the national discourse – heroes of the Croatian cultural and partly of the political history were commemorated. The most numerous were monuments dedicated to writers but also common were those of “national heroes” and historical battles. However, some monuments dedicated to national heroes or historical battles could also be interpreted as dynastic monuments. Ban Jelačić’s monument, erected in Zagreb in 1866, because of the role this Croatian ban (viceroy) played in 1848-49 revolution, is a clear statement of not just Croatian nationalism, but also of the allegiance to the Habsburg dynasty. Same could be said for the monuments that commemorated Battles at Slankamen (1892) and Petrovaradin (1902) that emphasized the role Habsburgs played in the “liberation” of Croatia in Ottoman-Habsburg Wars at the end of the 17th and the beginning of the 18th century.
