  • The Only (Self)Portrait of Quaglio and the Consequences of Its Renovation
    Varstvo spomenikov, 44 Mateja Neža Sitar The Only (Self)Portrait of Quaglio and the Consequences of its Renovation Key words: Ljubljana cathedral, Giulio Quaglio, self-portrait, monument preservation service, conser- vation and restoration procedures, Baroque painting technique, removal of impurities, retouching Abstract In the early 18th century, in the heyday of Baroque art in Ljubljana, the dean and patron of the construc- tion of the new Ljubljana cathedral, Janez Anton Dolničar, commissioned the northern Italian painter Giulio Quaglio (1668–1751) to adorn the cathedral of St Nicholas with frescoes. The Lombard Baroque painter, who was born in Laino on Lake Como, was a distinguished mural painter in Friuli and Gorizia, and he created his greatest masterpiece of his virtuoso artistic career in the illusionist murals in the inte- rior and on the exterior of the Ljubljana cathedral (1703–1706). Later, in 1721–1723, he returned with his son and completed the murals in the chapels of the nave. At that time the frescoes in the Ljubljana cathedral represented one of the largest cycles in Slovenia, and moreover, they were the most important commission of the artist. Because of this, he added his self-portrait to the images, which, according to research, is the only such example in his oeuvre in Italy, Austria and Slovenia. In 2002 a team from the Restoration Centre initiated one of its most complex and demanding conserva- tion and restoration projects on approximately 532 square metres of murals on the vault and western wall of the Ljubljana cathedral. The difficulty level of the project is evident from the methodology and organisation of the four-year work process, which in addition to concrete restoration procedures on the murals also entailed ongoing research, analysis, verification, study and documentation from various ex- pert points of view.

  • Visualization of Photogrammetric Documentation for Architecture of Cultural Heritage
    Kosmatin Fras, Mojca VISUALIZATION OF PHOTOGRAMMETRIC DOCUMENTATION FOR ARCHITECTURE OF CULTURAL HERITAGE Mojca KOSMATIN FRAS, Miran JANEŽIC Institute of Geodesy, Cartography and Photogrammetry, Ljubljana, Slovenia [email protected] [email protected] Working Group VI/3 KEY WORDS: architectural photogrammetry, documentation, cultural heritage, vizualization ABSTRACT Architectural photogrammetry provides methods and techniques for producing technical documentation of architecture of cultural heritage. Mostly used visualization of the results are still vector maps of facades, ground maps and cross sections although advances in computer technology and CAD tools enable more attractive and useful representation. Photogrammetric Department of the Institute of Geodesy, Cartography and Photogrammetry in Ljubljana, has been intensively implementing new apporaches for producing metrical documentation of monuments and is the only institution in Slovenia that has been active in both developmental and practical work in the field for the last few years. Development and researches has been focused on optimization of field measurements and development of effective technological line. Emphasis has been given on production of 3D models of building and vizualization of the models. Some in-house developed software has been produced. On the basis of thorough practical experience and knowledge a modern concept of photogrammetric close range survey is presented in the paper. The authors find out that clear procedures and good specifications are needed, knowledge transfer from photogrammetrists to consumers is appreciated, full use of 3D data is advisable. Samples of some projects are presented. 1 INTRODUCTION The aim of architectural photogrammetry is to produce metric documentation of architecture (buildings or it’s parts), which usually belongs to the national cultural heritage.

  • The Roman Catholic Church and Clergy in the Nazi-Fascist Era on Slovenian Soil
    Athens Journal of History - Volume 4, Issue 3 – Pages 227-252 The Roman Catholic Church and Clergy in the Nazi-Fascist Era on Slovenian Soil By Zorica Petrović The revisionism of the role the Catholic Church and collaborators had during World War II has been quite a typical approach in Slovenia, as one of the post-transition countries of the former Yugoslavia. With their own interpretation of the causes and consequences of pre-war, wartime and post-war events, the role of the Slovenian Home Guard and the Catholic clergy has been deliberately portrayed for years, as one of naivety and good intentions in the name of home, God, and religion. In relation to that, the aim of this paper is to point out some crucial facts, which are well documented and supported by recorded evidence. An insight into socio-political developments in the Slovenian territory, and the ideological background that conditioned the attitude of the official Church authorities towards representatives of the occupier is, therefore, essential. Also, the paper provides a closer look at the clergy’s attitude towards occupying forces and the National Liberation Forces in Slovenian regions,occupied by both the German and Italian agressor, given the time, space and social conditions. The conclusion addresses not only the process of reconciliation, but also the possibility of an alternative for a far more credible moral stance of the Church, in its attempt to be a key element of nation and state sovereignty in the eyes of the people and history in the long run. Introduction This paper discusses the role of the Slovenian Catholic church during World War II within all of its variables.
