Sažetak
The paper presents an attempt to reconstruct the lost heritage.
We will analyze the relation of the family members
of Kosaca to painting. Art-designed objects have been the
symbols of power and prestige throughout history, and
it is quite certain that the Kosacas also possessed a large
number of artworks. Regrettably, as judged by the sources,
from the rich treasures of Kosaca there has not been preserved
anything to the point that we can safely recognize
as the artistic legacy of this great feudal family.
However, there are relatively many references to the members
of the Kosaca family in the documents from the
Dubrovnik archives, which include artistic items such as
icons of the Herzog Stjepan, icons of Jelena, wife of Sandal
Hranic and icons of Queen Katarina, jewelry, clothes,
and expensive pottery. The Kosacas were also mentioned
as architects. There is evidence that Herzog Stjepan raised
churches in Stipan field and in Sopotnica near Gorazde. It
is well known that Sandalj Hranic owned a palace in Dubrovnik
and was fascinated by the work of Ivan Ugrinovic,
whom he invited to decorate his residence.
This paper will try to illuminate the Kosaca family relationship
with art, their phenomenon of collecting, as well as
to point to the strength and importance of the connections
between Zahumlje and Dubrovnik and to analyze the
modes of artistic influences and tastes between Dubrovnik
and the Zahumlje hinterland.
