Sažetak
On the basis of archival research and investigations in the field the author have expanded our knowledge of the art heritage of Dubrovnik and its surroundings during the first few decades of the 19th century. He has attributed the altar painting of St. Anthony of Padua from the village of Karmen in Podgorje to Andria Pignatelli of Dubrovnik (Apulia, ca. 1737—Dubrovnik, January 14, 1823). His known opus has been complemented by new insights into his work on the restoration of the Dominican monastery at Dubrovnik. New archival data have shed more light on the work of Lorenzo Vitelleschi, the district civil engineer, who was also active as a portrait painter, author of maps, and the head of the restoration project of Dubrovnik Cathedral. By new discoveries in the field, the opus of the painter Spaso Foretić was also added to, as a new altar painting by his hand was discovered at the parish church at Blato on the island of Korčula. The contract for the erection of a new altar of St. Joseph in the church of All Saints in Korčula has also been discovered assigning the work to Antun Mata Jeričević Labud, a member of an altar-making family from Korčula . Marko Pamić, a ship owner from Kučišta gave a marble altar to the Franciscan monastery of St. Vlaho at Pridvorje, originally meant for the church of Our Lady of Mercy in Dubrovnik. The import of precious metal objects from Rome and Naples to Dubrovnik and its surroundings has also been discussed, as well as the altar painting of Our Lady of Carmen by the Venetian painter Giovanni Battista Carrero, painted for the parish church of All Saints in Blato in 1838. Attention has been paid to numerous paintings of sailing ships kept in private and church collections. One may conclude that the period in question was one of renewal, albeit under rather narrow material conditions, which made major art commissions impossible.
