Abstract

Presented here is a relief fragment found secondarily embedded
in a structure in the Dobri neighbourhood of Split.
Through stylistic and comparative analysis, it is determined
that the relief belongs to early medieval sculpture, specifically
to the horizon of stone sculpture reflecting the outputs of the
so-called Liutprand Renaissance from the Apennine Peninsula.
Consequently, it is dated to the 8th century. In conclusion, the
relief is contextualised alongside other pre-Carolingian sculptures
on the eastern coast of the Adriatic.

Keywords
