Berdović family tomb is one of the important graves and monuments at the Cemetery Boninovo (Dubrovnik, Croatia).
Tomb characteristics
Next to the grave memorial of family Bošković, the grave memorial of Berdović family represents a privileged burial in its time, both in location and design. Unlike its neighbouring Bošković tomb, Berdović tomb represents modernist art tendencies of renowned Serbian architect Nikola Dobrović who lived in Dubrovnik during a period before the Second World War.Built for the family of rich merchant Jovo Berdović, this tomb is an example of modern design of funerary sculpture. It is connected to the author's other architectural works, invoking the stone blocks of the Dubrovnik City Walls. In Dubrovnik cemeteries, there can hardly be a closer analogy than this one.
