A native of Dubrovnik, Adamović studied natural science in Vienna. He researched the archives of Dubrovnik and wrote many monographs about Župa, Gruž and Rijeka Dubrovačka. Vicko was a contributing writer in journals Slovinac, Bratstvo, Dubrovnik, and Srđ as well as Italian publications.[2] In 1889 he founded the Provincial School Museum in Dubrovnik.
