Most of the identified portraits have been modelled on Elias Widemann’s engravings from the series Icones Illustrium Heroum Hungariae. So far researchers have formed two opposing opinions concerning the collection’s interpretation: while some claim the collection was commissioned by the Zrinski family during the second half of the 17th century, others insist it was commissioned by the Festetics in the 1820s. This article proposes another engraved portrait series as a model for the collection, namely Franz Leopold Schmittner’s engravings published in Corpus Juris Hungarici (1751), which can be used to confirm or newly establish the identity of seven busts. The authors examine in what way this new find affects the interpretation of the collection’s commission and its contextualization within Croatian and Hungarian art.","PeriodicalId":41842,"journal":{"name":"Radovi Instituta za Povijest Umjetnosti-Journal of the Institute of Art History","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2019-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.31664/ripu.2019.43.10","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45365275","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The cult of the saint has even transcended the confessional borders of Christianity, and his martyrdom was an exemplary manifestation of Christian belief, associated with the fight against older religions, perceived by Christians as pagan idolatry. His battle against the dragon, even if it was only later included in his legends, can be interpreted as an important archetypal image, embodying some of the basic tendencies of the human psyche. The current article focuses on this issue in the context of the visual art of a short period – the second decade of the sixteenth century – and of the geographical area of Central Europe. It is an attempt to compare several ways in which narratives about the saint were constructed and used for the purposes of political or religious propaganda. The construction of narratives was closely associated with the unwritten rules of a system of representation, valid in a particular medium.","PeriodicalId":41842,"journal":{"name":"Radovi Instituta za Povijest Umjetnosti-Journal of the Institute of Art History","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2019-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.31664/ripu.2019.43.03","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41752804","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Bralić","doi":"10.31664/ripu.2019.43.01","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.31664/ripu.2019.43.01","url":null,"abstract":"This article discusses how Venice, in its political representation, valued the relation with the sacred as one of the main strategies for strengthening its political power in Istrian communities. Through associations with the cults of local saints, the Republic participated in the (co)creation of local memory and identity as evinced in the cases of St. Nazarius, the patron saint of Koper, and St. Euphemia, the patron saint of Rovinj. A new impetus was given to their cults in the 15th century after the restitution of their relics as attested by commissions of several liturgical objects made in the Venetian botteghe. The restitution of the relics of St. Euphemia in 1401, here confirmed by the archival research, is a rare documented case in Venetian political and religious practices. The growth of devotion to the saint was prompted by the return of the body, but also by the Venetian custom of developing cults in a coordinated manner, encompassing liturgical celebrations, legends and their visual expressions. This article sheds new light on the role of Venetian officials in the promotion of the cult of St. Euphemia and the authorship of the key illuminations in the Rovinj Illuminated Codex.","PeriodicalId":41842,"journal":{"name":"Radovi Instituta za Povijest Umjetnosti-Journal of the Institute of Art History","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2019-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.31664/ripu.2019.43.01","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45517820","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Od prvotne stambene kuće, prenamijenjene za vijećnicu 1532. godine, zgrada je doživjela brojne promjene. Najvažnija je bila ona iz 1740.–1745. prema projektu arhitekta Antonija de Vernede, kada je nadograđen drugi kat, pripojena susjedna kuća, pročelja u cijelosti preoblikovana u baroknom stilu, te je kao takva, uz manje preinake, zgrada ostala sačuvana do danas. Nakon toga oštećena je u potresu 1750. te je ponovno obnovljena u nekoliko navrata. U kasnom 18. stoljeću nalazimo da se njezine prostorije koriste za razna društvena i javna događanja. Kao vijećnica služila je sve do 1833. godine, a zatim se gradska uprava preselila u bivši augustinski samostan te je zgrada prenamijenjena u trgovačke i stambene svrhe. S položajem na križanju glavnih ulica i središnjega trga, stara vijećnica ima i urbanističko značenje.
