Sažetak
The author in this work addresses the period of Gothic gold working in Dubrovnik, concentrating on examples of international Gothic style and noticing in Dubrovnik several artists who were active during the first half and the first quarter of the second half of the 14th century. In the reliquarium of Dubrovnik cathedral the author noticed three distinct groups of 14th century Gothic reliquaries. The first group is made up of reliquaries attributed to the "Klarisa Master", and which were connected with the Franciscan nun Priba Ruskova (De) Sorento from the convent of St Clare to which also belongs a Gothic chalice which was the gift of Polish King Kazimir the Great from Kiel and three thorax reliquaries from Dubrovnik's Reliquarium: St Zenobia (CLXIV), St Stephen the Martyr (CXXIX) and St Augustin the Teacher (LXI.). The following two groups are the first and second "Fabulous Beast Masters". These masters had at their disposal the most complex iconographic programme of international Gothic style. To the older "Fabulous Beast Master" are attributed two reliquary heads (CLXII and CLXVI) of saints Nereus, Achilles, Stephen and Blasius which are today kept in the Reliquarium of Dubrovnik Cathedra!. These two reliquaries have their closest artistic parallel in the famous Vrlika belt which is kept in the Museum of Croatian Archaeological Monuments in Split, and whose creation on the basis of examples from Dubrovnik is confirmed as the first half of the 14th century in a Dubrovnik workshop.
