Sažetak
The article focuses on a chancel screen post which was discovered in the ground-floor hallway of the Episcopal Palace at Zadar in 1970. It is not known how it reached this location. The post cannot be attributed to a specific building within the episcopal complex – consisting of the Cathedral, the church of St Donatus and other liturgical spaces – with certainty. Although previously published, the post has never been examined in much detail nor was it reproduced in a high-quality image. The front face bears a fine relief of an ornamental vine-scroll and represents a valuable example of stone sculpture from the early period of pre-Romanesque art in the Adriatic. As such it warrants special attention and the author compares it to similar ornaments found on chancel screen posts and panels, but also ciboria, along the east Adriatic coast from the Venetian lagoons to southern Dalmatia. In addition, the author highlights the important fact that an identical ornament was carved on the surface of a wooden beam from the well-known centrally planned church of the Holy Trinity (St Donatus) at Zadar.
