The Print Collection of the National and University Library in Zagreb<\/a> (NSK) hosted the third event of the Library\u2019s 2026 Heritage at Hand at CroAtrium<\/a><\/em> programme, aimed at the promotion and popularisation of treasures in NSK\u2019s collections<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Professor at the Graphic Arts Department of the Zagreb Academy of Fine Arts<\/a> Miran \u0160abi\u0107 brought closer to the event participants lithography, one of the most widespread graphic arts technique.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In giving a historical overview of the development of lithographic printing, Professor \u0160abi\u0107 spoke of the Academy\u2019s role in providing foundations for making lithography an important part of Croatian artistic heritage. He singled out as particularly momentous in this context the introduction into its programme in 1956 of the study of graphic arts<\/a>, the first such academic programme in Croatia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The beginnings of lithography \u2013 well-preserved in the NSK Print Collection<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Although lithography is very much alive today and is still developing after almost more than 230 years since its invention, its beginnings continue to be a subject of research. Apart from the Academy\u2019s Department and its lithography workshop, NSK Print Collection also plays a significant part in preserving the history of lithography in Croatia, curating historical material such as the lithographs of Julius H\u00fchn<\/a>, the pioneer of Croatian lithographic printing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Also, the Collection\u2019s lithographic prints by Marijan Detoni<\/a>, Albert Kinert<\/a>, Frane Paro<\/a> and other Croatian artists who marked 70 years of the Department\u2019s work represent a valuable record of its development during the decades.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Croatica \u2013 a treasure trove of inspiration for new generations<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The programme included a step-by-step presentation of the process of making lithographs, in which the pupils of the School of Applied Arts and Design in Zagreb (\u0160PUD)<\/a> showed special interest. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Also, the event participants had the opportunity to see a selection of lithographs from the NSK Print Collection by Tomislav Krizman<\/a>, Ljubo Babi\u0107<\/a> and other notable Croatian artists, as well as by famous names of world art such as Joan Mir\u00f3 and K\u00e4the Kollwitz<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to lithographs, items in the Collection include woodcuts, engravings, etchings, linocuts and other types of prints, as well as drawings, art posters, postcards, print portfolios and art books<\/a>. Hoping that we have successfully brought its treasures to the attention of those who have yet to leave their mark on lithographic tradition and pass it on to future generations, we continue to build it as the largest collection of its kind in Croatia and an especially valuable part of Croatica<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
