Some notes concerning the Church paintigs of Ivo Dulčić
Milan Ivanišević
Sažetak
Painter Ivo Dulčić (Dubrovnik, 1916 — Zagreb, 1975) was the first modern Croatian painter to work for churches (1957). Possessing an extraordinary gift for colour, he was also renown for his expressive faces and figures, a feature virtually unknown in the painting of religious subjects before him. That is why his works for chuches often produced controversies, but none did so more than the vast fresco »Christ, the King, with the Saints, the Symbols of Evangelists and the People«, done for the church of Our Lady of Health, at Split (1959). The author of this essay brings some new remarks concerning the very beginnings of Dulčić’s work on hagiographic subjects, which had been missed by other art historians writing on this subject. Also, it is for the first time that an author makes a list of Dulčić’s works for churches, which may be seen in Croatia and Bosnia, as well as in the Croatian church at Essen. They are 130 in all: oils, murals, mosaics and stained-glass windows. The list is topographic and is accompanied by the appertaining iconographic and technical index.
