Sažetak
Anđela Horvat’s contribution to the study and understanding of Baroque art in inland Croatia is exceptional in many respects. Her book Between the Gothic and the Baroque (Između gotike i baroka), a detailed survey of art in inland Croatia from late 15th to late 17th century, published in 1975, drew attention to previously neglected artwork of the period and raised numerous questions, but also proposed the guidelines for future research. Anđela Horvat abandoned the traditional practice of describing the development of style, and, basing her studies on fi eld research, examined the plurality of stylistic features through the analysis of the coexistence of different currents, without imposing the categories of artistic value. The paper discusses some of her theses on the examples of Zagreb Cathedral and the parish church of St. Anastasia in Samobor. The methodology applied in Anđela Horvat’s research had no predecessors in Croatia, and it is especially revealing that many subjects covered in her studies have entered the sphere of art-historical research in Central Europe only some two decades ago.
