Abstract

U ovom diplomskom radu predstavljen je Orlandov stup, jedan od najvažnijih dubrovačkih spomenika. Gotička skulptura s pripadajućim stupom postavljena je na glavni gradski trg 1419. godine kao simbol samopouzdanja novonastale republike, ali i podanički znak Sigismundu, ugarskom kralju s kojim su Dubrovčani njegovali poseban odnos. Radi se o prvoj javnoj skulpturi u kojoj su začeti novi umjetnički koncepti. Izradio ju je Bonino di Milano koji je u to vrijeme stupio u državnu službu te sudjelovao na brojnim projektima urbanističkog usavršavanja grada. Dubrovački Orlando podrijetlo vuče iz njemačke sredine u kojoj se kipovi viteza Rolanda postavljaju na središnje gradske trgove kao pravni simboli. Iako među njima postoje određene sličnosti, nijedan njemački spomenik nije poslužio kao izravni predložak dubrovačkom. Orlando je u životu republike imao i brojne funkcije, od čega je posebno problematično bilo nošenje državne zastave koje je uvelike utjecalo na njegova kasnija oštećenja. Proživio je burnu prošlost: 1825. godine srušila ga je bura, restauriran je i vraćen na Lužu tek 1878. godine, a zabilježene su i intervencije 1950-ih godina te nakon Domovinskog rata. Kontroverzno restauriranje iz 2006./2007. godine produbilo je već postojeće probleme i dovelo spomenik u stanje ugrožene egzistencije. Od 2019. godine Orlando je okovan skelom te su na njega postavljeni mjerni uređaji. Monitoring će trajati do lipnja 2021. godine te će se na temelju njegovih rezultata donijeti odluka o Orlandovoj budućnosti.

Abstract (english)

This thesis presents an overview of Orlando's Column, one of the most important monuments in Dubrovnik. The Gothic statue was erected on the main town square in 1419 as a symbol of confidence of the newly formed republic, but also as a sign of submission to Sigismund, the Hungarian king with whom the people of Dubrovnik nurtured a special relationship. It is the first public statue in which new artistic concepts were conceived. It was made by Bonino di Milano, who at that time entered the civil service and participated in numerous urban development projects in the city. Dubrovnik's Orlando originates from Germany where statues of the Knight Roland were placed on the main town squares as legal symbols. Although there are certain similarities between them, no German monument served as a model for the Dubrovnik statue. Orlando also had numerous functions in the life of the republic, of which the carrying of the state flag was particularly problematic, since it greatly affected its subsequent damage. The statue had a turbulent past: in 1825 it was blown down by the wind, it was restored and returned to Luža only in 1878, and interventions were made in the 1950s and after the Homeland War. Controversial restoration from 2006/2007 deepened the already existing problems and brought the monument to a state of endangered existence. Since 2019, Orlando has been surrounded by scaffolding and measuring devices have been installed. The monitoring will last until June 2021, and a decision on Orlando's future will be made based on its results.
