Abstract

Drvena kapela sv. Petra i Pavla u Boku Palanječkom podignuta je 1752. godine kao donacija kanonika zagrebačkog Kaptola Nikole Terihaja u koju je dao postaviti barokni oltar kipara Antuna Reinera, načinjen od drva i sa skulpturalnim prikazima svetih kraljeva Ladislava i Stjepana koji flankiraju sliku sv. Petra iznad koje se nalazi slika sv. Pavla. Čitav interijer kapele oslikan je motivima listova akanta isprepletenih s biljnim viticama, motivima mogranja, baroknih rešetki u kartušama i prikazom sv. Ivana Nepomuka na jednom od panela stropnog tabulata. U predvorju kapele nalazi se još jedna oltarna pala (štafelajna slika) koja prikazuje predaju ključeva sv. Petru, a s istočne strane kapele, iza svetišta pozornost privlači neobičan kameni stup, vjerojatno konstruiran rimskim spolijama. Ovaj rad donosi kronološki pregled povijesti kapele iz arhivskih izvora, osvrće se na protagoniste zaslužne za njezino podizanje, te analizu njezinih elemenata i arhitekture u kontekstu sinteze suvremene poslijetridentske ikonografije i drvene pučke gradnje.

Abstract (english)

The chapel of Saint Peter and Paul in Bok Palanječki was erected in 1752 under the patronage of Kaptol of Zagreb’s canon Nikola Terihaj who commissioned an elaborate wooden altar from the sculptor Antun Reiner, introducing complex iconography of the aftermath of the eccumenical Council of Trent to a small rural community, combining it with wooden architecture specific to the region it’s located in. The chapel is of a simple, rectangular shape with a three-sided apse and a bell tower above the small atrium. It’s built of oak wood in the manner typical in the area around Sisak, to which parish it now belongs. Behind the apse of the chapel there is an interesting stone pillar, unique to a wooden chapel such as this one, most likely built by combining ancient stone from Roman times found nearby. The entire interior of the chapel is colorfully painted with acanthus leaves intertwined with vines and images of pomegranates and latticed cartouches. In the small atrium there is an oil painting of Delivery of the Keys depicting Christ and saint Peter. Another contemporary image is painted on the wood panels of the tabulazzo ceiling, a depiction of saint John of Nepomuk, protector against floods, the disaster that destroyed the older chapel in the same location. The altar is ornamented in the Baroque style, with sculptures of king-saints Ladislaus and Stephen flanking a painting of saint Peter, above which is a smaller painting of saint Paul. This paper gives the overview of the chapel’s history, key protagonists of its time, and a formal analysis of the artworks.
