Crkva sv. Jeronima u Štrigovi u kontekstu pavlinske arhitekture
-
Ana-Marija Horvat Crkva sv. Jeronima u Štrigovi gradi se od 1738. do 1749. godine na temeljima prošle, petnaestostoljetne crkve koju je dao izgraditi Fridrich Celjski vjerujući da je Štrigova rodno mjesto velikog crkvenog oca sv. Jeronima. Njezino troapsidalno svetište rijetko je arhitektonsko rješenje kasnobarokne arhitekture u Hrvatskoj, a tri od šest takvih crkava izgradili su pavlini. Oni dolaze u Međimurje vrlo brzo, već 1376. godine, a tristotinjak godina kasnije dolaze i u Štrigovu gdje je...

Crteži Vere Dajht-Kralj
-
Ivana Završki Cilj je ovoga rada predstaviti opus crteža Vere Dajht-Kralj koji svjedoči o njezinu interesu za izražavanje u različitim medijima. Za polazišnu točku ovoga rada odabrana je formulacija „kiparski crtež“ kako bi se uspostavila veza između autoričina primarnog medija skulpture i crteža te kako bi se time otvorio put za daljnje proučavanje manje poznatoga dijela autoričina opusa. Ta formulacija obuhvaća, s jedne strane, crtež kao skicu za izvedbu skulpture, a s druge strane,...

Crveni porfir – simbolika i moć carskog kamena
-
Jelena Šekrst Kamen se zbog veće trajnosti u odnosu na druge materijale, ali i estetskih vrijednosti, smatra jednom od najvažnijih sirovina tijekom čitave povijesti. Raznobojni kamen krasio je najvažnija arhitektonska zdanja, plijenio poglede i govorio o bogatstvu i statusu vlasnika. U pojedinim razdobljima najbolji je status imao egipatski crveni porfir, najcjenjeniji, najekskluzivniji i najtvrđi poznati kamen antike. Razlozi su tome njegova purpurna boja te visoka tvrdoća, čvrstoća i otpornost....
