This collection of eight tapestries created in 1967 are based on secular monumental paintings by Marij Pregelj (1913-1967), one of the most eminent Slovene painters of the mid-20th century. They were woven by the Novi Sad tapestry artist Etelka Tobolka (1919-1989), and are a valuable example of such work, rarely to be found in Slovenia.

The tapestries were woven to furnish the Koteks Tobus boutique in Ljubljana (later renamed KOTO, d.o.o.), which was closed for renovation at the end of the 1970s, when the tapestries were put into storage. The collection was rediscovered in 1998 during research into the work of the architect Oton Jugovec, who had designed the boutique. In 2008 the owner of the tapestries, KOTO, d.o.o., entrusted their professional care and safekeeping to the Ptuj – Ormož Regional Museum, where the whole collection had been restored in the textile conservation and restoration workshop in 2003. In 2018 the Ministry of Culture declared the collection of eight tapestries a national treasure, and two years later it approved the funds for its purchase. So after 20 long years, the Ptuj – Ormož Regional Museum became the owner of this exceptional collection by one of the most important Slovenian artists of high modernism. The exhibition is on display at Ormož Castle.
