Sažetak
In the turmoil of wars and frequent government and territorial changes, it was truly an art to be successfully involved in monument conservation. After the fall of Austro-Hungarian monarchy, one all-encompassing cultural monument preservation law did not exist, and this remained the case up until the beginning of Second World War. Lacking necessary legal infrastructure, Frano Bulić, the director of Conservation Institute of Dalmatia (until 1926) and Ljubo Karaman (director from 1926 until 1941) have been suggesting, drafting and applying various regulations and laws with the purposes of monument preservation, theft and damage prevention, landscape protection and museum laws establishment. This particularly relates to period after 1931 when the Construction Law was passed, which contained important regulations regarding art-history related cities and buildings. In 1941, Ljubo Karaman becomes the director of Conservation Institute in Zagreb (until 1951) where he, thanks to the Split experience, introduces the form of Rulebook for object recording within larger settlements. This was proved to be especially necessary after Second World War during insight into remaining monuments and their condition throughout entire district area. Under Karaman’s administration preliminary work was systematically being done and problems were approached according to the rules which led to quality solutions. Up until 1958, 45 rulebooks have been made for Dalmatian and continental Croatian cities which enabled old-city cores’ preservation lasting up to this date. This presentation will present examples of Split and Sisak. The presentation will emphasize a chronological display of laws and regulations in the field of conservation in Croatia’s region between two world wars and immediately after the Second World War, while describing the present state of several monuments and agglomerations whose integrity is partly preserved by applying the aforementioned laws.
