Abstract (english)
Dr. Franjo (Franz) Kresnik (born Wien 1869 – died Rijeka 1943) was an excellent physician and a Central European intellectual, a bohemian mind whose two loves in life made him very special. His passions were medicine and violin making. Most of his life was spent in Sušak (now a part of Rijeka, Croatia), where he worked, played music and studied the art of making stringed instruments. He visited Cremona on several occasions and studied a number of violins, drawings and tools made and used by old masters. For his profound knowledge of Cremonese violin making the Italians dubbed him “Uomo che legge violini” (The Man Who Can Read Violins). In his workshop he made fifty-two violins, two violas, two cellos and a string quartet. Some of these instruments are still played in Europe and America. The remaining violins and possessions (tools, manuscripts, drawings, literature and countless diplomas and certificates ) have been kept in a memorial room at the Maritime and History Museum of the Croatian Littoral in Rijeka. In addition, a street near the Faculty of Medicine in Rijeka is named after Franjo Kresnik.
Abstract (german)
Dr. Franjo (Franz) Kresnik (geboren in Wien 1869 – gestorben in Rijeka 1943) war ein hervorragender Arzt, ein mitteleuropäischer Intellektueller und eine Künstlernatur. Die zwei großen Lieben seines Lebens waren die Medizin und der Geigenbau. Er verbrachte die meiste Zeit seines Lebens in Sušak (nun ein Teil von Rijeka); dort arbeitete er, machte Musik und erlernte die Kunst des Geigenbaus. Mehrere Male besuchte er Cremona und beschäftigte sich dort mit Instrumenten, Werkzeugen und Skizzen der alten Meister. Wegen seiner profunden Kenntnis der Kunst des Cremoneser Geigenbaus gaben ihm die Italiener der Beinamen „Uomo che legge violini“. In seiner Werkstatt fertigte er 52 Violinen, zwei Bratschen, zwei Cellos und die Instrumente für ein vollständiges Streichquartett an. Einige seiner Instrumente werden noch heute in Europa oder Amerika gespielt. Seine übrigen Instrumente und sonstigen Besitztümer (Werkzeuge, Manuskripte, Skizzen, Literatur sowie eine große Zahl von Diplomen und Zertifikaten) befinden sich in einem ihm gewidmeten Raum im Seefahrtsmuseum und historischen Museum des kroatischen Küstenlands in Rijeka. Darüberhinaus ist auch eine Straße unweit der medizinischen Fakultät in Rijeka nach Franjo Kresnik benannt.
