Problemy inwentaryzacji zabytków w dużych zespołach miejskich na przykładzie "Katalogu zabytków miasta Krakowa" PROBLEMS OF CATALOGUING HISTORIC MONUMENTS IN BIG TOWN COMPLEXES ON THE EXAMPLE OF ’’THE CATALOGUE OF CRACOW’S HISTORIC MONUMENTS
On the example of works on ’’The Catalogue of Cracow’s
Historic Monuments”, describing a few hundred
monuments of architecture and several thousand works
of painting, sculpture and artistic craftmanship, the au thors
present problems of the cataloguing of monuments
in big town complexes. Assuming th a t the cataloguing
is to cover structures put up before World War
II Cracow has now several thousand buildings of historic
interest th a t represent different periods. The idea
to catalogue monuments arose in Cracow already in the
18th century (first publications appeared about 1900).
More comprehensive studies were undertaken only after
1945 and were included into the works on ’’The Catalogue
of Arct Monuments in Poland”, prepared by the
Institute of the Polish Art attached to the Polish Academy
of Sciences. In 1973 a special institution for works
on the cataloguing was established, namely the Team
(at present th e Workshop) for th e Cataloguing of Historic
Monuments of the Town of Cracow, headed by Jan
Jamek and emploing 5 permanent workers and about
20 co-workers. Their task is to carry out field works
according to the ir specialization, e.g. miniature codices
in libraries are prepared by a rt historians engaged in
this problem. The cataloguing of Cracow’s historic monuments
has been done in nearly 70 per cent. The works
carried out so fa r have brought a number of discoveries
— out of 1,000 photographs published in one p a rt
of ’’The Catalogue” almost 800 represent the works th a t
have not been known before. A fu rth e r efficient p rogress
of the works depends on the training of a sufficient
number of specialists, i.e. a rt historians who would
recognize and date various objects from different epochs
according to the instructions on cataloguing. It is expected
th a t works on the cataloguing of Cracow’s historic
monuments should be completed in 15-years time, while
editorial works will last about 20 years. The whole of
’’The Catalogue of Cracow’s Monuments” ’will consist of
12 parts (altogether 40 books) containing 3,000 pages of
the te x t and 12—15 thousand photographs. It will be an
important material for a rt historians, architects conservators,
and what is most important, it will offer a full
possibility to undertake works on thematic catalogues
(e.g. of gold works, already being prepared). A vast
number of treatises and articles arising as the effect of
the works on cataloques prompts the establishment of
a specific department for studies on the art of C ra cow
biassed in favour of the works on the a rt of the
microregion.
