Sažetak
The author discusses the context and the details of a contract drawn up in Dubrovnik in 1478 between two Korčula masons, Marko Andrijin and Nikola Markov and the Mantuan patrician Valente de Valentis who commissioned a rather large number of chiseled stone items for the architectural decoration of his palace in Mantua. Special attention is given in this text to the systems and units of measurement mentioned in the contract, which indicate the dimensions of the items, the professional terminology used in the contract and the organization of the venture which was demanding because it involved a large commission to be delivered within a short period of time.
