The area is busy but pleasant.   <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you have a car, you&#8217;ll need to park in a parking lot outside Diocletian&#8217;s Palace, as the area is entirely pedestrianized.

Instead, use the parking lot at Istarska ul. 4, a 5-minute walk away.    <\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-genesis-blocks-gb-container box gb-block-container\" style=\"background-color:#f3dbd6;margin-top:8%;margin-bottom:8%\"><div class=\"gb-container-inside\"><div class=\"gb-container-content\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns inverse box_planif is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column texte_planif is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:58%\">\n<h5 class=\"titre_box\">OUR ADVICE FOR RENTING YOUR CAR AT <span class=\"titre_box_manuscrit\">\nCroatia<\/span><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<ul style=\"font-size:14px\" class=\"wp-block-list liste_voiture\">\n<li>Compare prices on our preferred platform: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discovercars.com\/en\/croatia?a_aid=zigzag&amp;chan=croatia\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">DiscoverCars<\/a> &#8211; one of the best rated sites.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Choose a <strong>car that is powerful enough <\/strong>(the roads are steep) but <strong>compact<\/strong> (some passages are narrow).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>There is a lot of demand, <strong>book it early<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column planif-radius-3 is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:42%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Croatia\/Paklenica\/Rando-entr&#xE9;e-1\/i-Tzg4V6J\/0\/KXmXjZbtGwDbJrgcqktnpnrkcSSch3cnNBDJHcqWg\/S\/paklenica%20parc%20enter%201%20and%20hike-004-S.jpg\" alt=\"car in Croatia\" title=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns planif_bouton is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-fe48e5de wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-white-color has-text-color has-custom-font-size wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.discovercars.com\/fr\/croatia?a_aid=zigzag&amp;chan=croatia\" style=\"border-radius:4px;font-size:14px\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">See the cars<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2851\" style=\"width: 16px;\" src=\"https:\/\/provencelovers.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/ArrowRight.webp\" alt=\"\"\/><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:14px\"><strong>See our tips<\/strong> (coming soon)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Useful tips: duration, schedules, eating&#8230;<\/h2>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Best time to visit<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Split Museum of Fine Arts is not very crowded, which guarantees a quiet visit at all times. However, avoid Saturdays and Sundays, especially in July and August, when the museum is more crowded. Prefer a weekday visit, preferably in the morning or early afternoon, to take full advantage of the Modern and Contemporary Art collections. Alternatively, a visit in the late afternoon guarantees a nice light under the galleries.   <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Croatia\/Split\/Mus&#xE9;es\/Beaux-Arts\/i-K8P3f77\/0\/LQgDbTFGLFK4MRxhxVHt7GhTDkBVWkdH93vCVvcmL\/L\/galeries%20musee%20beaux%20arts%20split-L.jpg\" alt=\"Split Museum of Fine Arts - galleries\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Length of visit and main difficulties<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Allow between 1h and 2h for a full tour of the museum, with the possibility of extending to half a day for art enthusiasts.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Wheelchair-accessible toilets are located near the entrance on the first floor. The museum&#8217;s accessibility is generally good, with elevators and platform lifts, but the entrance requires climbing a staircase fitted with a handrail. <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Croatia\/Split\/Mus&#xE9;es\/Beaux-Arts\/i-btFRgQB\/0\/Kh6drTwmfpKPfVh9sphkHKJXx6b546t8b6cQZFkzD\/L\/plateforme%20elevatrice%20pmr%20musee%20beaux%20arts%20split-L.jpg\" alt=\"Split Museum of Fine Arts - lifting platform\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Advice on how to visit<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Visiting the museum is free, with no set itinerary, allowing you to explore at your own pace. If you wish to follow a chronological thread, we recommend you start with the Old Masters Collection (14th to 18th centuries), before moving on to the rooms devoted to Modern Art. Then finish on the first floor, where Contemporary Art reveals its most current and daring forms. The museum also features temporary exhibitions that regularly enrich the experience. Don&#8217;t forget to take advantage of the interior courtyard and its galleries, a peaceful, luminous place that rounds off your visit perfectly.    <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Croatia\/Split\/Mus&#xE9;es\/Beaux-Arts\/i-5MbRLVv\/0\/NFCG25pfWKS8MvSRbMbKHdXHN35XS7gsmkNK3h2Jb\/L\/oeuvres%20contemporaines%20musee%20beaux%20arts%20split-L.jpg\" alt=\"Museum of Fine Arts Split - contemporary art\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Visiting with children<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The museum is not specially designed for children, with few activities or mediation adapted to them. However, curious young visitors will appreciate the diversity of the works, particularly the multimedia installations and sculptures. Spaces are large and airy, making it easy for the whole family to visit. Keep your visit short, so as not to lose your children&#8217;s attention.   <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Croatia\/Split\/Mus&#xE9;es\/Beaux-Arts\/i-WghwPwV\/0\/KdrfdZszV8Wbwst4mrsHBkTqfWJ4R6jJzvqFgXdNc\/L\/video%20artistique%20musee%20beaux%20arts%20split-L.jpg\" alt=\"Museum of Fine Arts Split - multimedia works\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Schedules and rates<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The museum is open Tuesday to Friday from 10am to 6pm and weekends from 10am to 2pm.

The <strong>Art Gallery Cafe Music Bar Split<\/strong> boasts a pleasant terrace directly facing the ramparts of Diocletian&#8217;s Palace. The setting is ideal for sipping a cocktail at the end of the day, or sharing an aperitif. It also offers bowls for a more balanced meal.

We were drawn to the golden hues of the polyptych by <strong>Paolo Veneziano<\/strong>, the most eminent Venetian painter of the 14th century. The museum&#8217;s classical scenography highlights these luminous pieces, bathing the rooms in a pleasant halo that sublimates details and colors.  <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Croatia\/Split\/Mus&#xE9;es\/Beaux-Arts\/i-GdK9zM7\/0\/Ncrbcncx9LZPwtRcc2G9bSMzSFjKKzBj8KK8cXvbG\/L\/oeuvre%20veneziano%20musee%20beaux%20arts%20split-L.jpg\" alt=\"Work by Paolo Veneziano\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Work by Paolo Veneziano<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We were particularly struck by <em>The Four Seasons<\/em> by Peter Brandl &#8211; a forgotten painter of the late Baroque period &#8211; a work with an almost mystical atmosphere. In this painting, the milky-skinned figures stand out against a dark background, seeming to unite in a dance imbued with poetry and spirituality. This immersion in the world of the great classical masters was essential to our understanding of the evolution of art, both locally and across Europe. To visit the Split Museum of Fine Arts is to experience a moment suspended between history and beauty, where each canvas reveals a unique emotional intensity.   <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Croatia\/Split\/Mus&#xE9;es\/Beaux-Arts\/i-vf4c89B\/0\/KfXsn9kqF5trB4jPbmLF3nTGWvGRRzxqh5wHHr9Zp\/L\/peinture%20italienne%20musee%20beaux%20arts%20split-L.jpg\" alt=\"The Four Seasons, Peter Brandl\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>The Four Seasons<\/em>, Peter Brandl<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The museum&#8217;s iconographic treasures<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The icon collection at the Museum of Fine Arts in Split is one of the richest in Croatia. It brings together works from Crete and Venice, from the Ionian school and the workshops of Boka Kotorska, as well as from Russia and continental Greece, offering a broad panorama of iconographic art. Most of these icons, in small or medium format, were intended for private devotion. Some can be attributed to specific artists or workshops, while others are signed by <em>Madonnari<\/em>, the popular painters who specialized in religious representations.   <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Croatia\/Split\/Mus&#xE9;es\/Beaux-Arts\/i-KBNPDfs\/0\/MGtn9BbPkxbwmCv9tPXZTLjCRPC4cdxsBkHzz622G\/L\/icone%20religieuse%20musee%20beaux%20arts%20split-L.jpg\" alt=\"Icon by Rafailo Dimitrijevi&#x107;\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Icon by Rafailo Dimitrijevi\u0107<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Plunging into the heart of Modern Art before 1950<\/h2>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Masterpieces of Modern Art<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A significant part of the collection is devoted to the great masters of Croatian modernism, among whom <strong>Vlaho Bukovac<\/strong> and <strong>Mato Medovi\u0107<\/strong> stand out. Bukovac&#8217;s creations, produced in Split between 1884 and 1885, mark a major turning point, heralding the beginnings of Modern Art in Croatia. These works offer a fascinating glimpse into local artistic evolution and testify to the dynamism of the Croatian art scene at the end of the XIX\u1d49 century. We were called by a canvas by Medovi\u0107 depicting a wild landscape of the Island of Kor\u010dula in a thousand and one hues.   <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Croatia\/Split\/Mus&#xE9;es\/Beaux-Arts\/i-JnNRqz3\/0\/MNDGCVQWGMvvKLwPMC4jr8RZkLtf3HmFRB2PF56v6\/L\/peinture%20paysage%20musee%20beaux%20arts%20split-L.jpg\" alt=\"Painting by Mato Medovi&#x107;\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Painting by Mato Medovi\u0107<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Polymorphous works: between sculpture and painting<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The museum&#8217;s Modern Art collection perfectly illustrates the richness and variety of Croatian art. We noticed the refined portraits by <strong>Juraj Pavlovi\u0107<\/strong> and <strong>Ivan Skvar\u010dina<\/strong>, as well as the remarkable sculptures by<strong>Ivan Rendi\u0107<\/strong>. We also liked the caricatures, drawings and paintings by<strong>Emanuel Vidovi\u0107<\/strong>, who was instrumental in introducing modern art ideas to Split. Sculptures by<strong>Ivan Me\u0161trovi\u0107<\/strong>, the most famous Yugoslav sculptor of the 20th century, complete the panorama, offering a fine balance between painting and sculpture and testifying to the vitality of the Croatian art scene through the ages.   <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Croatia\/Split\/Mus&#xE9;es\/Beaux-Arts\/i-8fWg4fW\/0\/NRPGnpNxLvdXCHgBQLLzQbZZ2fgrk8JSbPqJGNk6g\/L\/peinture%20vidovic%20musee%20beaux%20arts%20split-L.jpg\" alt=\"Canvas by Emanuel Vidovi&#x107;\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Canvas by Emanuel Vidovi\u0107<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Immersion in Croatian contemporary art after 1950<\/h2>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Creations that shake up codes<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As we wandered through the rooms dedicated to Contemporary Art, we were surprised by the creativity and boldness of Croatian artists after 1950. The works explore varied and sometimes unexpected forms, materials and approaches, challenging traditional codes. Multimedia installations, paintings, live performances and sculptures interact with one another, inviting reflection as much as wonder. This part of the museum particularly appealed to us for its energy and originality, offering a striking contrast with the more classical collections. Here you&#8217;ll discover striking works by <strong>Mladen Stilinovi\u0107<\/strong>, <strong>Goran Petercol<\/strong> and <strong>Ivan Faktor<\/strong>, major figures on the local scene. These creations are surprising in their diversity and modernity.     <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Croatia\/Split\/Mus&#xE9;es\/Beaux-Arts\/i-qrNPz5v\/0\/McN7wdtdrf2cwG4xXSPkbTB2BzjV7ZwtQcM6CPP99\/L\/oeuvre%20musee%20beaux%20arts%20split-L.jpg\" alt=\"Museum of Fine Arts Split - contemporary artworks\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Artists of the younger generation<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A visit to Split&#8217;s Museum of Fine Arts is also a chance to immerse yourself in the visual diversity of the young generation of Croatian artists. The Contemporary Art collection exhibits a variety of works that testify to an abundant creativity and a plurality of mediums. We were delighted to observe the contrasts between forms, colors and techniques, reflecting a lively dialogue between tradition and innovation. Through works by<strong> Miroslav \u0160utej<\/strong>, <strong>Juraj Dobrovi\u0107<\/strong> and <strong>Julije Knifer<\/strong>, we were able to trace the major trends that marked this period. The museum places particular emphasis on recent artistic practices, highlighting the work of the younger generation, such as <strong>Vlasta \u017dani\u0107 <\/strong>&#8216;s performance, which raised a number of questions for us.    <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\"
