Ivan Lovrić

Ivan Lovrić (also Giovanni Lovrich; ca. 1756 in Sinj – 1777 Sinj) was a croatian writer, ethnographer, and medical student from the Republic of Venice, best known for his work Observations on 'Travels in Dalmatia' of Abbot Alberto Fortis.

Born in Sinj to a relatively wealthy Croatian merchant family, Lovric studied linguistics in Venice and then medicine in Padua. His early death in 1777 was preceded by numerous works, most notably Observations on 'Travels in Dalmatia' of Abate Alberto Fortis (1776), including a history of the life of Stanislav Sočivica, and An Apologetic Letter by Ivan Lovrić to the distinguished Mr. Antonio Lorgna (1777).
