Kreković was the only foreigner with the privilege to have the whole floor of the Hofburg palace in Viena at his disposal. Ankowiz - Kleehoven, historian of art who at that time was very old and many years before that predicted him a brilliant artistic career, brought him a copy of his old published article in which he announced that the name of Kreković should be remembered.
