Portrait, Museum Maritimum, Kotor, Montenegro
Portrait of admiral Matija Zmajevic, 1680-1735, painting, 1937, by Anastas Boracic, copy of an 18th century portrait, in the Museum Maritimum, or Maritime Museum of Montenegro, housed in a baroque palace built for the Grgurina family in the early 18th century, in Kotor, on the Bay of Kotor on the Adriatic coast of Montenegro. Peter Andreevich, an emissary of the Russian tsar, who supervised training of Russian boyars at Perast, sent Zmajevic as a skilled seaman to Carlsbad where the tsar was under medical treatment in 1712, to have his knowledge in naval science tested by the tsar himself.
