Paintings in the Preserved Inventories of Zadar Citizens from the XIVth and XVth Centuries
Emil Hilje
Sažetak
Amongst the preserved archival material relating to painting in Zadar from the Gothic period a particular group is composed of lists of goods of deceased citizens which, among other properties, often makes reference to different paintings. It is to be regretted that only an insignificant part of the inventories which, according to the laws of the city statute, had to be drawn up, has been preserved. Nevertheless, on the basis of the representativeness of the preserved examples and the number of paintings which are listed it can be surmised that during the 14th and 15th centuries there were five to six thousand various paintings privately owned by the citizens of Zadar. The number itself clearly confirms the cultural level of Medieval Zadar and the development of painting within the city. Unfortunately, all of these works have in the meanwhile disappeared so that the written sources are the only witnesses of their existence.
