We extend our sincere gratitude to the many project partners who supported this project: In particular, we would like to thank the inhabitants of Lopud and the members of the Association for the Protection of Cultural Heritage and Nature of Lopud (Društvo za zaštitu spomeničke baštine i prirode Lopuda) with Evica Nedeljkov and Vlasta Pulić Glavović. Their contributions were instrumental in bringing this project to life by supporting our work with friendship and keen interest and even providing accommodation, food and hospitality for the many international participants – for whom this became an important experience within their professional training – enriching the cultural exchange. We would also like to thank Božena Popić Kurtela, the conservator in charge at the Dubrovnik Monument Care Office (Ministry of Culture and Media of the Republic of Croatia), whose invaluable professional advice and personal support of was pivotal for the planning, financing, and implementation of the workshop. We are also immensely grateful to Lady Jadranka Beresford-Peirse with the International Trust for Croatian Monuments, who supported the project in many ways, as well as Lucien Rees-Roberts, who initiated the Lopud Art Foundation and awarded Hans Portsteffen a generous writing grant and made this publication possible. Lastly, our heartfelt appreciation goes to all our supporters for their enormous, constant, and reliable engagement over the years.
