Stjepan II Frankopan’s Tombstone

Marija Šercer

Sažetak

Stjepan II (1416—1481), the third of ten childrens of Nikola IV Frankopan, was the most significant member of the Frankopan family in the 15th century. Since the early days of his youth he was in the diplomatic service of King Sigismund of Luxemburg. On behalf of John Hunyadi he held negotiations with King Alfons of Naples. He spent some time in Austria where he was the captain of the Duchy of Carniola. King Matthias Corvinus commended him in the 1460 charter for his wisdom, dignified conducts and loyalty. On several occasions he was the viceroy of Croatia and Dalmatia (with his brother Ivan from 1434-1436, alone in 1437 and with Pavle Špirančić from 1459—1463). He died in Modruš in 1481 at the age of 65. The tombstone was most certainly commissioned by his son Bernardin who chose a mason (or more than one) from the Senj stonemasonry workshop. Monuments that were produced at the workshop include the tombstones of Dominika Bedričić from Senj (from 1509) and Modruš Bishop Krištofor (from 1517) as well as the relief of Christ in the conographic scene of Imago Pietatis.
