About the publication of the album Krakow to Zagreb 

 

In 1881 in Krakow the album Kraków Zagrzebiowi (Krakow to Zagreb) was published. Now, 130 years later, a bilingual (Polish and Croatian) edition of the album Krakov Zagrebu/Kraków Zagrzebiowi has come out (edited by Maciej Czerwiński and Magdalena Najbar-Agičić, Srednja Europa, Zagreb 2011). The new edition, apart from reprinting original content, includes chapters on the circumstances of the original edition, with editorial elaboration. The publication from 1881 was devoted to gathering resources to support the Croatian capital in its struggle against the devastation of the 1880 earthquake.
